so what's up with those enormous rags randomly draped over the buildings?
What a horribly told story. So many plotholes. so many retcons. Why did a retard write this DLC? I honestly don't understand why they would end Elden Ring on such a sad, pathetic note.
>>483976414The DLC answered all questions and concluded perfectly the game. Actually pay attention and it's all there
so i explored everything besides the circled area and i'm kind of getting tired, is that area really dense or will it be easy to clean it?and is the legacy dungeon after it long?
>>483976513Explain then, faggot. Bet it's Miyazaki replying. Kill yourself.
Marika just wanted to be happy with her kidsWhat's your defense for denying her thatGenocide every single hornsent, the hornsent holocaust never happened but it should've
I love CARIAN women
>20 skibidi fragments>60 vig>Radahn 2shots me>has a billion health uuuhm... not good?
>gains further power with sacred imbuement>still worse than flame art with fire buff from flame skewer/spearnice one
>>483976513>concluded perfectlygood morning sir
>>483976082So if Melina is the GEQ and Marikas child were Melina and Messmer born before Marika ascended to godhood? iirc GEQ was a rival empyrean of Marika who was defeated by her
It's so hard to play this DLC as a mageI keep using DMGS to stagger then just hoping Shard Spiral or Night Comet gets the job done while they're staggered. If not, back to DMGSPlease tell me that it gets better.
>>483976602who was their dad?did she care about miquella and malenia too?
>>483976586Topside Rauh is a nightmare Torrent sized Legacy dungeon that'll make you wish for St.Trina's sweet release, have fun
Messmer's fine, he just needs correction and someone to make up for that lack of motherly love. I'll be his mommy
>>483976678It might literally be bothMelina might've revolted or have been sealed away once Marika got "tamed", I mean St. Trina sends us to kill Miquella and St. Trina is literally just Miquella's love
>>483976414>AHHHHH THEY DIDNT EXPLAIN SOME SECONDARY GARBAGE ON MOLECULAR LEVEL I AM GOING INSAAAAANEhttps://youtu.be/Z-tTBlGc860?feature=shared&t=138
>>483976742>did she care about miquella and malenia too?Marika was canonically grieving when Miquella got stolen, so presumably yesMiquella honestly feels like the one who got groomed as her actual heir once Godwyn exploded
why didnt they change the upgrade system? why can't I go beyond +25? why am I not growing in strength other than those shitty tree blessings that only work in that area?
>fits comfortably over the head
>>483976693dude your sword is clipping through your hat
>>483976513>The DLC answered all questions and concluded perfectly the game.Explain the 10 square mile empty Finger Ruins then
>What thr fuck is the point of djostflame when dragonice and borealis already exist?>What am I missing?
>"Godrick the Golden, humiliated>Having tasted defeat by the Blade of Miquella>Now on his knees, begging for mercy">Fast forward to the DLC>Malenia ends up being the actual retard, did all of that shit for nothing>Godrick, while a fucking loser, still had the best area to live in on the Lands Between
WHAT THE FUCKI SUMMONED YOU FOR MESSMER AND YOU DO THIS, ASSHOLE
>>483976932>I SUMMONEDYou get what you fucking deserve, also never relax around omens
>>483976678>So if Melina is the GEQShe isn't. I don't understand how the game can keep telling you she isn't over and over and over and over and over again and still you keep on believing she is.
Why does this DLC have so much unused space? Go off the beaten path to explore some ledge or outcrop or path and you're rewarded with nothing. The base game would almost always have a dungeon or something.
>>483976921>did all of that shit for nothingShe did it literally to give a Lord to her brother in hopes he can cure her as a God
Before>boss does powerful single strikes, occasionally a two or three hit combo>player does weaker multi hit combosNow>boss does powerful double digit count combos, occasionally a single hit attack>player does weaker single hit attacks
>>483976513>>483976858FUCK YOU MIYAZAKI, LITTLE DETAILS ARE IMPORTANT.>Secondary garbage>Questline involving the most important fight of the Shattering, related to the poster girl of the game, ends up having no conclusionCome on.
>>483976871Didnt miquella get stolen during the shattering?
>>483977034hey man I got Messmer to like 5% solo then ran to Hornsent's sign and summoned him so he could land the killing blow, surely that counts
>>483976602>that artist will barely do any Miquella fanart anymore>along with almost everyone>lore is just that disgustingly badIt's fucking OVER.
>>483976762i'm tired man, i shouldn't have explored every square inch of the map i feel burnes out now
>>483977098who's this semen demen?
>>483977048I was just asking someone else who stated she was you filthy ape
>>483976494Well all the lanky shadow guys are supposed to be former(idk if they're undead or shades or what) peasantry i think, so i presume that at some point it was an impovershed group attempt at repairing holes to block wind/rain and make the buildings somewhat usable. The actual cloth they used is probably abandoned banners/flags from all the giant, destroyed buildings and stuff.
>>483976932insanely funny that leda, who is portrayed as paranoid and has dialogue designed to make you feel bad for siding with her against hornsent, was actually right about him
>>483977185Who the fuck knows? Gideon makes it sound like it happened before since Queen Marika could react to it, but Miquella was ALSO apparently physically present at Aeonia to heal Freyja so...?
Okay Miyazaki, you've shown us that you can make super duper hard DLC, you're now peak difficulty (totally not artificial) and kino cool guy. You've proven that you can make a game for the people who were raised on Dark Souls and too good for its combat nowSo can you please go back to the souls classic combat instead of making me fight Sekiro bosses. I don't need every new game to be harder than the last. I don't want to reach the point of every third boss being Consort Radahn. Please just let me roll through attacks and use more than 1/5th of my weapon's combo please thank you Miyazaki please let me out pleaseAnd also just make Elden Ring 2 literally Elden Ring 2 instead of Elden Ring 100000 years after Elden Ring 1
>>483977234The final solution to the hornsent question must be implemented
>>483977098>WHY ARE THERE CLIFFS? HOW DARE THEY MAKE CLIFFS WITHOUT PUTTING A BING BING WAHOO +5 ON EACH AND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM?
>>483977110And what happened? Nothing.>>483977185Don't ask questions about the timeline.
>>483976637Just use a thrusting shield, they're currently bugged and take zero stamina damage if they block something while attacking with them
>>483977208>doesn't recognize kuronekoI fucking HATE ZOOMERS
>>483977383>And what happened? Nothing.Yeah because the biggest dick in Lands Between strolled near the Divine Gate

>>483977363Fucking this so much seething about how there isn't a weapon behind every tombstone or tree. go back to botw and collect your golden shit you fags, we're killing monsters kek
>>483977428is that a bug?
>>483976742>who was their dad?Radagon
>>483977234why does everyone hate the horsent? i don't know much about lore but from what i understood his people did freaky human experiments and messmer genocided them?if that's all then i side with the genocided and not the genocider
>>483977363>>483977496>NOOOOOO DON'T DO WHAT THE BASE GAME DIDWhat if you just make less empty space lol
>>483977478>host is very obviously a tyrannyA what?
I want more elden ring. Maybe standalone dlc from different eras in setting history. Or maybe you enter paintings to participate in historical events.
>>483976637>more than 18 skibidis post nerf>should've self limited to 12YDBTF (You didn't beat the fag)
>>483977383Base Elden Ring mostly worked except for a few plot holes here and there. Basically - everything that was rewritten was done so poorly. The cut content for Elden Ring would have been AMAZING.The DLC just shits the bed so much that it's actually painful. Elden Ring already had issues because of all the stuff that was cut, the DLC just made it all an incoherent mess.>>483977285I really don't see us getting an Elden Ring 2. This DLC felt more like a send off then anything else. Probably gonna get a new setting or a different game all together. Pretty sure Elden Ring is just done now.
>>483977554>if that's all then i side with the genocided and not the genociderYeah, so you'd need to side against the hornsent then since unlike Messmer, the hornsent actually completed their genocide.
>>483977494>Runebear AreaWhat the fuck are you talking about? I've found like three runebears in the whole dlc (excluding the two with boss bars)Also no reason to fear them anymore, sekiro tear absolutely trivializes them.
>>483976509Back to /v/, faggot>>483976589>>MALENIA She will always remain the Goddess of Rot, but was defeated and her rune was taken. She has stopped fighting>>HALIGTREE After the Eclipse plan failed, Miquella has no way to bolster its growth, it also failed and is but a foolish hope for Miquella's followers>>LATENNA'S SISTER She can birth new albinaurics if you complete Latenna's quest>TELL ME.

I want to co-op with the most amount of people I can for dlc/endgame main gameIs 150 enough? I don't think I need to go higher right?
>>483977554They tortured all of Marika's people and cut them to pieces and stuffed them into jars and used the concentrated sludge of all the non-hornsent they could get their hands on to build a gate that imbues divinity
Holy fuck guys I just saw a steamer use Margitt's shackle AoE to break the spirit spring stone without finding the stones what the fuck?!?!
>>483977496>we're killing monsters kekno way it's the ghostbirds again! or the shadow people! or the dogs with messmer soldiers! or the wolves!!
>>483977478>Where are all the normal people?They don't need to summon. At the moment summoner aren't doing it for it fun fun it's because they are legitimately walled due to being retarded and dysfunctional as well as stubborn.
yeah, what a sad state of affairs indeed.
>>483977173>LITTLE DETAILS ARE IMPORTANTSure.Miyazaki just doesn't believe you need to know every single detail of a thousands years old world and fate of every one of it's inhabitants. He thinks you are dumb and is glad you are going insane.
>>483977781That was beautiful cherry picking anon, but ToTK is still sloppa, you know? How many new enemies did they add after 5 years of dev time again?
>>483977801what level is that?
questions that require an answer not so easily googled. >Anyone have the sliders for the Marika face that gets passed around here? It's the best one I've found and google only shows terrible youtube abominations or crummy reddit ones.>What is the pvp "meta" level now? I haven't done any pvp in the game for quite awhile and I want to get back to it for a little bit at least.
>>483977816Miyazaki just lost track of his own story over the years. So many plot details forgotten, so many plotholes left gaping wide. It's a real damn shame.
>>483977772Yeah it randomly targets breakable/hittable objects in a vast range for a 'strike'. You can also use it to turn off traps in the base game.
>>483977130skill issue
>>483977496BOTW is a bad example, the complaints about it's world are literally identical to this one. Lots of space existing for the sake of space and that scares brown people.
anyone else feeling burned out and depressed after beating the dlc?all that waiting, all that hype, for this…
>>483977646>>483977671I just want FromSoft to one (1) time try to thoroughly flesh out the world. Prove that they actually had a deep story in mind for all these games and let us experience it properly instead of having a bunch of wacky vague plotlines that kinda connect to bait youtubers and never properly commit to writing somethingIf it doesn't work out and they prove they can't write real stories for shit, so be it. But between the Leda fight feeling like it's how I want every NPC quest line to kinda feel (a bunch of NPCs doing climactic stuff together at the end of their questlines, even if in this case it was a brawl), and not being able to do the clear Miquella ending they wanted at some point, just give me a fleshed out beginning-to-end. Even if they have to release 3 DLCs to properly flesh out some stuff
>>483976509They probably just gave up in making sense midway development and just rehashed it all into the garbage we have now.
>>483977234>who is portrayed as paranoidLeda's not paranoid, she's just an insane yandere and that's hot
>perfect block Gaius' kick with physick>the ring goes off 3 timesFuck you
Ringed city was better
Why do you bleed slower with 2 weapons with 50 bleed up each compared to a single weapon like twinblade with 100 buildup?
>>483977912I never played ToTK faggot, stop deflecting.
>>483977525Does being able to block endgame boss attacks for zero stamina seem intended to you?
>>483977993Same. Game play wise it was fun but it has one of the worst stories I've ever had the displeasure of forcing myself through. It hurts even worse because the story for Elden Ring was really well told and GRRM did some amazing work on the setting.Then it turned into... this.
>>483977912i only remember 3gleeoksgloom handswell actually that's 2, the rest is meh
>>483977993The dlc was awesome. I feel depressed that I did everything and it's over.
>>483977772Margit's shackle "hits" an enormous area, about twice as big as Morgott's boss arena so that it can affect him if you use it thereYou can use it to hit the fire-spewing things in catacombs too
>they finally add proper longswords>the moveset is faggoty spins and poses
>>483977745And also the implication is that the hornsent actually killed all of Marika's people and she was the only one remaining, while Marika's crusade against them was not even a genocide. The hornsent are still around, they've just been reduced to a powerless group of people since they lost the war against Messmer.
I will NOT use the Sekiro cheat tear
STRfag here, of the new weapons what have other STRfags experimented with? For me the great katana seems pretty good but idk if I want to invest heavily into it. I tend to use raptor of the mists as a sekirofag and choosing between overhead or raptor is hell for me. Milady doesn't seem like a STR weapon but the moveset seems pretty damn good.
>>483977816>Miyazaki just doesn't believe you need to know every single detail of a thousands years old world and fate of every one of it's inhabitants.GRRM is retarded then
>>483978089100% agree
>>483977234>who is portrayed as paranoidLmao she's portrayed as a serial killer who is using Miquella as a way to pick her quarries.
>>483977173Malenia already has the conclusion, is called giving her the needleThe fuck you want exactly? A cutscene of your toon fucking Malenia silly post game and nutting in her and then a slideshow of having a loving family with her as Lord?
>>483978234I learned about it, tried it, thought it might be good for Radahn's spam attacks, got guard broken too many times because I missed timings, then forgot to use it and finally beat Radahn the normal way lol
>>483977720Fucking kill yourself you worthless shitposter
Full FTH with fire knight greatsword or STR/FTH with death knight greataxe?
Why are boss weapons so often complete shit
>>483978132The catalyst-sword having unusably dogshit scaling doesn't seem intended either but I hesitate to call it a bug
>>483977993>gameplayamazing, 10/10>difficultyamazing, good for replaying it and not finding it a boring easy shit, sadly they giga nerfed it in the early parts of the dlc, with the best bosses (messmer and pre-messmer)>map designkinda nice too>storyHow the fuck could they fuck up this shit so badly is insane, almost feels like deliberately done like shit on purpose, drags the entire dlc down to 5/10
If you want answers just watch Vati lore videos
>>483978186Don't look into a HEMA manual.
>>483978135The story is supposed to be bizarre and indecipherable.
>some smith designed a super cool heavy armor for Gaius, leggings included>was proud of his work>when he gave it to Gaius, dude looked sad and almost crying>"what the fuck did i do wrong?"
Imagine how good a Bluepoint remake of elden ring would look
>>483978186>they finally add proper longswordsLGS aren't one-handed arming swords you fucking retard they're almost as long as you areHEMAfags are subhuman and universally fat as fuck
>>483977613Host is an unjust ruler.
I am extremely hype on this expansion bros. Not just the expansion itself, but how much it adds to the game. It's so cool there's this post game island to do on top of all the base game stuff, I feel like a kid playing Fable again.
>>483978258>>483977954In this case I blame Mike Zaki, not Gurm. The fatman, if anything, is TOO obsessed with letting his readers know every single detail of every single aspect of his worldbuilding.
>>483978448nice bait. have a (you)
>>483978448They're lords of the fallen all the visuals againAmazing the fucking ego of those hacks.
So if the first phase of Radahn's fight is meant to be some kind of ritual to summon a soul, akin to what the Hornsent did with jars and ritual combat for divinity, what if I canonically just walked away? Does Miquella's plan just fail? Does he then have to go on a new quest to chase me down and hypnotize me so I fight Radahn's body
>can kill Radahn phase 1 without losing a single point of health>die in phase 2 within 10 secondsHOW DO I LEARN THE FIGHT IF IT JUST KILLS ME?
>>483978186>the moveset is faggoty spins and posesI bet you think the base GS moveset where you use it like a spade or some shit is a great and manly moveset
>>483977993just disappointed, it was worse than base game
>>483978426Most HEMA is actually made up shit
Why do fromsoft like to design bosses that run away?They patched the Elden Beast with torrent, and then added fucking Scadutree avatar.
>>483978503too bad his worldbuilding is complete ass lmaoeven sanderson is better at it
>>483978503>every single detail of every single aspect of his charactersFTFY, gurm's worldbuilding is trash. He's only good at characters.
>>483978535you keep doing it until you survive 15 secondsthen 20 and so on
>>483977173miyazaki has never bothered with any details, let alone little details. you're talking about the same guy who greenlit mentioning a distant god of another land, by name, that has no other mention in the entire franchise except for one easily missable if you don't join the covenant of big booba in DS1. we never saw flann anywhere again.miyazaki prefers to paint broad strokes, with very little paint on the brush and let people fill in the blanks and never actually commit to anything beyond that because that implies having to know how to actually write a story.
>>483977948There are two meta pvp levels because every "pro" pvp faggot nigger influencer dndjdjfne ckf enckgksnc nemxbwknxnwkfmwncnfkdjfbebfbckdndbcbdj thinks they know better than everyone else. 125 and 150
>>483977478>host has 2 scads at bayleI killed Bayle at 2 scadsWhy can't you?
>>483978530he wins if you just leave because no one's stopping him with radahn at the helm
YOOOO this gameplay is fire frfrfr
>>483978718Sick!
>>483978497It's fucking awesome. Did a fresh playthrough with a new character after 2 years away, did a bunch of quests I never did before then jumped into the DLC. 9/10 -1 point for convoluted transit and dumb final boss in both base game and dlc.
>think putrescence cleaver looks cool>get it >its complete and utter garbage its all so tiring
>>483978640He's ok at writing them I wouldn't say he's goodHe has a nasty tendency to export modern cynicism onto people who live in a society that wouldn't create that sort of cynicism
>>483978323And giving the needle does what? Headcanon your way through it, right? Amazing. I should rip that fucking rot flower off.>It's fine because we get an ancient dragon stone after babysitting Millicent through the entire game! She also doesn't show in Castle Sol as a summon because we forgot about the questline, lol!>>483977720>The DLC answered all questions and concluded perfectly the game.>What about those? Seems self explanatory>Doesn't say shit about it.>Uh how are you confused by those?Again, explain to me. What does Nepheli means by "I will call upon the storm, to drive away the foulness that has settled on the winds."It answered all the questions, right? >Radagon's farewell giftWith a Great Rune? Before the shattering?
>>483978535You do it 300 more timesThe pipeline is suffer phase 1 > reach phase 2, die instantly > master phase 1 > reach phase 2, die instantly but to a new attack > fucking hate phase 1 because it's an unskippable 2 minute cutscene where Radahn rolls dice to decide whether he randomly hits you for an undodgeable 40% of your health > start facetanking his attacks and somehow get your best results > start losing phase 1 because you're getting too used to trading hits
So by how endgame plays out- Miquella is basically parasite, like a Cordyceps fungus, weird.
>>483977478I fucking hate this shit so fucking much. I got summoned to fucking Radahn by a guy with fucking 7 Scadutree Blessings.Instantly severed. No. I am not carrying you through this bullshit if you can't even be bothered to play the game yourself. Go fuck yourself.
>>483978718Why is it okay for bosses to mixup their rollcatchs but not players?
>>483978718>Couldn't last a week without cheatingDo zoomers really
>>483978473>>483978537Seething dexfags prancing around with their miladys
>>483978797many such case>sgs is still just better than comet because of the cast time
Had to leave for a couple days before I could finish. What's the verdict now, does everyone love the lore and is beating Radahn easily?
>>483978675But no one was meant to stop him. He needs Radahn's soul for his plan and the ritual fight with you is meant to summon it or something. Otherwise he doesn't have a consort and he can't become a god
>>483978718You've already posted that one.
I hate the red knights so much. Talk about overtuned.
>>483978823post nerf, 12 should be the limit tbdesu.
>>483978892>sgsWhat?
>>483978864>he seriously thinks using a sword like it's a shovel and just smashing it into the ground every swing is good
>>483976693>ZERO INT weapons>you can maybe...maybe cast one spell during a boss fight>all spells are dog shit, except for the black hole whateverit's a 10/10 dlc doe ;^))) everything is perfect haha
>>483978998Super gay sword.
>>483978546>>483978676
>>483978810>He's ok at writing them I wouldn't say he's goodGood for fantasy standards.>He has a nasty tendency to export modern cynicism onto people who live in a society that wouldn't create that sort of cynicismWdym? We really aren't in any way particularly cynic or jaded nowadays compared to the past.If anything the average person is so detached from danger we've become problematically naive.
>>483978578most things is made up. that's how things are made. unless you mean to imply that HEMA is something you can witness trees or something doing. HEMA is a human creation. we made it up.
>>483978980nah radahns already summoned when you walk in the plans over that's why miquella tells you to fuck off and let them handle it from here
>>483978998swift glintstone shard
>>483978718kino webm 'oopa, keep it up brother
>>483978821He's just the equivalent of Marika, a soul in need of a consort, except she did 5d chess and selfcest and Miquella mindfucked people. But he'll probably apologize and try to make amends for anyone who says they were wrong in the end. Maybe. I'm not really sure how it works when abandoned all the stuff that justified his quest in the first place, but he at least still sounds kind even when he's about to suplex you
>>483978840dude these mixups are INSANE
Boss weapons should be top tier weapons, yet that's only the case for Carian Regal Scepter, and...no, just the scepter.
>>483976693I'm pretty much just spamming Adula's Moonblade at this point. It's the only reliable spell for these motherfuckers.
>>483976678the only one in the main story who can be the geq is ranni.melina is too young.
>>483979075ITS ALL FAITH WEAPONSAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>483976693>mage>dmgs Maybe try casting spells instead of swinging a low dps great weapon around
Why St Trina 's lips are... like that?
>spend about 5 hours smacking my head against radahn with my iron fist pure strength build>finally beat him doing about 900 damage per charged R2>look up some people using different builts>some colossal weapon that hits him for fucking 7000 damage on a charged R2 and can be used in basically all the same windows AND staggers him easilyholy shitfeel like I was playing on hard mode nownot to mention the fists whiffing all the timewhat other builds absolutely faceroll this cuck?

>>483979274lightning perfume can kill both phases of radahn in ~11 seconds
>>483977193Anyone knows more? I just added the 3rd in because I found them recently, it's a very small artist.
>>483979375I haven't posted in like 2 weeks anon.
>>483979117>Wdym? We really aren't in any way particularly cynic or jaded nowadays compared to the past.Just as a basic example, not a single one of his (seven kingdoms) characters who isn't the high septon acts like they believe in their own religion, and most of them are basically straight Machiavellian (irl leaders that were too machiavellian tended to get kicked out). They barely even pay lip service to the Seven and when they do it's clearly not from the heart, which just doesn't make any sense, how is the religion extant if nobody believes in it? The Red Wedding gets talked about because he's betrayed hospitality, but it's also a sacrament but this never gets brought up.
>>483979103>Miquella was actually just kidnapped lolPretty sick how the twink got a free demi-god body that he mixed his blood with even before Radahn was killed to shove his brother's soul into huh. Imagine the luck
>>483979126Uhhhh it's for pvp. Why would I use it in pve? My comet does 2.8k damage sgs does like 700 damage (it doesn't cast 4 x faster).
>>483979274He isnt immune to bleed, so probably that
>>483979212no one in the main story barring potentially marika could have been birthing Godskins the queen is either marika, marikas family member from shaman times, or a hornsent.
>>483978578Most of the actual historical fighting manuals back this up though
>>483979448AHAHAHAHAHA """"artists"""" are so embarrassing. Imagine being this weak and pathetic

>>483978025We should have been able to make Leda a yandere for us
Why would Gaius hold on to those useless fucking pants and give them to his girlfriend though? Just throw them away.
>>483979172I dont get it, they clearly put the most effort into boss weapons yet they are almost always bad
>>483979172Marika's Hammer is probably one of the best 1h hammersIt's just that 1h hammers are dogdoo
>>483979487Anon what the fuck are you talking about.
>>483978537No, I prefer the Dark Souls 2 greatsword moveset to the retarded flaling other games have, but the Light Greatsword moveset is too flamboyant and twirly. It's almost right with the cuts, thrusts and different guard, but it goes overboard. It's a shame.>>483978473retard
Well fuck you.I'm not even mad though, it's an awesome fight, I think my favourite in the DLC so far. Might even be favourite in the entire game.
>>483979527im assuming if he was easy to bleed he wouldnt be causing so much outcry since all the RoB bleed spammers and company would have steamrolled him by nowhell someone posted a thing on here where reddits basedboy shitter said hes getting clapped by the boss since the retard cant just bleed/frost spam him to death and doesn't have the extra leniency that latency gives you in the malenia fight
>>483979448Not yet but good (sad) collage, it's fucking over...
>>483979448very sad to see
>>483979605>Heh, those people actually CARE about things. Pathetic. I'll hide between irony to show how much BASED I am. Chuds.>>483979676He's talking about Miquella discarding his body and then showing up with a new one or whatever.
>regular throwing knives >Dog shit>Fan knives >good>Regular trowing dagger weapon>dog shit>Fan dagger weapon>goodWell okay then
>>483979419what the fucki tried out some of those perfume bottles and thought they were dogshitis the lightning one bugged? never found that one
Alright, Midra is the first legit bullshit boss i found in the DLCBitch is relentless and Madness is aids
>>483979316Artorias's shield was pretty good.
>this sword lance looks cool>complete doo doo movesetback to the stitcher
>>483979741It's so very sad how someone can ruin something so good by putting so little effort into the story. I really want to know what made Miyazaki retcon and rewrite his own story so poorly. I just can't accept that this was the original plan. It makes no fucking sense.
>>483979886Yeah it's glitched it does nuke tier damage for no reason
>>483979891Post skbidi level.
Miyazaki really ruined this. When I met Miquella I was expecting a face that matched the (DLC) personallity.picrel
>>483979676The last chunk of the "logical" gymnastics part of the picture. There's no way anyone can think at this point that Miquella didn't plan shitI honestly couldn't tell if the joke was that the second part can't possibly be real, or if it's shitting on the devs for actually doing most of that
>>483979891i killed him easily on my second try. wish it went on longer desumessmer took me at least 50 tries thoughbeiti think a lot of the difficulty has to do with skibidi level proving the difficulty is purely artificial
>>483979448>make your entire personality around schizo theories of a random fromsoft twink>upset when your headcannon isnt correct
>>483979103Absolute fucking GEM.
>>483978089(you)
>>483979963>>483980083Ironic, Messmer went down after 3 tries
>>483979961might have to try it out on my holy guy (presuming it scales with faith)
>>483979713it’s clearly intended for female characters dummy
>>483978426The problem with HEMA is that most martial arts are highly contextual and changed greatly across different eras based on the tactics and technology at play.For example manuals teaching cavalry knights in full plate how to fight dismounted involve a lot of movements that leave the body exposed and focus mostly on fighting from a high stance, because you only really need to protect your head from a blunt strike while your armour covers the rest of you.Meanwhile you skip forward 200 years and longsword manuals are now purely dedicated to honor duels between nobles to settle disputes. At some point they still wore full armour, then they didn't, then the swords changed, etc.HEMA tends to mix these things together and ignore contexts, because we don't have enough intact manuscripts to adequately corroborate any single school of swordplay from any given era.This is also why HEMA always gets its shit rocked when pitted against any modern combat sport, because it's diluted with techniques designed for knights in full plate using their sword as a wedging stick to wrestle each other to the ground mixed in with actual dueling techniques meant for non-lethal unprotected sparring.
Next FromSoft game I'm just gonna go full heavy armor with a 2 hander and shit on everything since both light and heavy weapons only get to attack once during the few windows we get anywayI've already finished the game but every time I see some fag in fat armor ignoring everything I had to learn, and it's not just in this game either, I just want to do it that way and tell people they didn't beat the game when I'm the one who didn't
>>483980208Wait....Post helmet....
>>483978090There was a specific nerf to bleed weapons when dual wielding to directly counter things like dual nagi being able to bleed in 1 L1. This also worked on bosses and you could bleed bosses in 1-2 L1's with them. It definitely deserved the nerf.
>>483977954Nah, they have thes story outlined and then work backwards. You needn't know everything nigger gaijin, you were never intended to.
>>483980092>headcannon
Why the fuck is everything about Consort Radahn so fucking lame?>Phase 2 is just phase 1 with cancer beams>Entire fight is inferior to the base game version>BOTH Remembrance weapons are inferior to his base game weapons (Why didn't they just make it a stance weapon FFS)>Spell is fucking shit>Cutscene you get for beating him is fucking shitI am legitimately having difficulties wrapping my had around how fucking badly they did this
>>483979927>I really want to know what made Miyazaki retcon and rewrite his own story so poorlyPeople probably hit the nail on the head on too many things so he changed is so people were wrong>>483979886>>483979961It's not a bugWhat's happening is that rolling sparks throws out a line of explosions that explode in sequenceBut if you put it directly underneath you all of them will explode at the same spot instead of being spread outIt's as if Burn O Flame or Founding Rain of Stars did all of its damage in one specific spot
>boss weapon>cant scale the buildupthis is completely retarded
>>483980245Only fags fight with weapons, everything is made up because weapons aren't real>t. not only trained in martial arts with 15 years experience, but taught people for a chunk of it too
>>483980241Yes. That is the issue. Why would you make a weapon group coded to one gender? What the fuck is the point?
>>483980296what helmet?Midra apparently being strong vs BAYLE sucks
>>483979891midra is fucking great, genuinely fair, he has many openings and can get guard broken easilydo you want help anon?>>483980083>artificial difficultyi think i beat messmer with level 8 fragments on ng+7messmer was also an extremely well done boss, extremely legible attacks with good openings that rewarded proper roll times
>change from med roll to light>doing much better>still die in the same amount of hitsVery strange
>>483978979turns out geeat shields are the main character weapon choice in the loremakes every boss a joke
>>483980382THANK FOR 40 DORRA GAIJIN
>>483979992Uhh? No? That's just a huge plothole and another retarded part of the story. You touch Miquella's hand to go to the Land of Shadows. His hand. You get there. He is getting rid of his body to become a god. While his body is a cocoon. That you use to go to the Lands Between. This is stupid and a plothole. The same goes for him getting kidnapped by Mohg. It is stupid for him to have got into the Haligtree, only for Mohg to steal him and then put him into a cocoon, as part of some master plan. Even if it wasn't a retcon, which obviously is, it's STILL bad writing. It's even dumber for Malenia to know that plan and for her to just wait by the tree.this isn't complicated the story from the DLC just fucking sucks and ruins the wonderful story of the base game.
>>483980245>This is also why HEMA always gets its shit rocked when pitted against any modern combat sportIt also gets its shit rocked against martial arts that teach >le olde ways and aren't for sportsIt turns out actually coherent systems built for purpose win over fatasses larping
>>483979212>the geq is ranni.
>>483976693>intHave some faith. Poor Bayle never got to his second phase.
>>483980486YeahWear stuff with high focus stats.
>>483980443Yeah if a boss weapon doesn’t have innate arcane it won’t help with the status
>>483979891Congrats on dying to the literal DLC boss that is lazily floating around and swinging like a drunk.
>>483980461Only low-test men think that twirling around isn't manlyMen who hate hello kitty will never get laid
>>483979891Really? I find it funny how people are finding different things difficult. Are you using some super slow weapon?Pro tip - you can crouch his entire spin to recover stamina, and potentially heal (though I think moving while healing has you get up high enough to get clipped). Also you get several free attacks at the start - just run towards him right away and do a single roll when he starts shooting to position yourself behind him.
messemer phase 2 is so badgoofy semi transparent snakes poofing in and out of existence serving only to take up real estate on my screen and force me to wait until it's my turn to attackthere's no interaction with the arena either for what should have been some cool spectacle. even skibidi tree avatar had some neat shit with flinging trees and thorns all over, don't know why there wasn't any equivalent herephase 1 - 8/10, flashy and funphase 2 - 3/10, gaudy and boring
I guess this is not Miquella's body :)
You'd think murdering her companions would weigh on Leda more.
>>483980448mcdojos aren't real>>483980702For me it was the exact opposite, phase 2 was slow enough that I could actually react to what I was seeing, phase 1 his spear was constantly on fire and I literally couldn't tell what he was doing half the time because the fire would obscure my vision
>>483980698i genuinely forget attacks can be jumped or ducked
>>483980245What modern combat sport actually teaches weapons? MMA would get its shit rocked by HEMA because one is using a sword and one isn't, so I'm not sure what you mean by that.The SEA martial arts get bodied by it at least, they are all mall ninja shit.
>>483980382Yeah radahn is such a downgrade compared to the messmer fight. His moveset isn't even terribly difficult it's just one attack that is pretty absurd and the particle effects clutter in phase 2 being annoying. If they fixed that one attack he'd still not even be anywhere close to the best DLC boss.I'd rate messmer, BAYLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE, Midra, Renalla all above him
>>483980775they deserved it so she doesn't feel guilty simple as that
>>483980805>phase 2 was slow enough*hits you twice, pauses for 0.5 seconds, then turns into teleporting snakes*
>Miquella discards everything about his existences>he couldn't have long-discarded the long-rotting hand that's poking out of the cocoon before you even got there>you can't just be brought to him by touching it by some wacky Elden Ring voodoo shit ala teleporting chests or the magic warpgates in the base game or literally just magic given that the shadow land is a different place entirelyI don't care nearly enough to say if something is or isn't a plothole, but anyone who thinks Miquella didn't plan shit is retarded>b-but the devs in the b-b-b-base game....They 100% knew they were going to make DLC. It's FromSoft. They know their game will sell, they knew this shit in advance. At absolute worst they had to leave some areas vague enough for it to work but they've always done that with all lore anyway>b-b-b-but you touch Miquella, Mohg tells you or some shitThe guy who is brainwashed into doing whatever MIquella tells him to. It's a catch 22, you can't prove otherwise and you can't prove the devs didn't plan it but wrote things in a way to bait you
>>483980775I think it's really funny how her immediate thought after the charm broke was "I better start killing some of these guys before they betray us" without a hint of self awareness.
>>483980834NTA, but I recall accounts of HEMAfags getting wrecked by LARPers since the latter group would often bumrush the HEMAfags and wrestle them.
>>483980671I mean, sure, there's nothing wrong with a flamboyant moveset by itself, but giving a weapon moveset such a strong personality makes it clash against some of the character concepts that would otherwise look fine using it.
>>483980383>It's not a bugnigga you look at those damage numbers and say with a straight face that it's not a bug. even if it's not a bug, it's very much not INTENDED.
>>483979891Really? He was the first boss I encountered that wasn't bullshit. Midra and Messmer are top tier, the rest are slop
>>483980904Well that was just my experience, it took me like 8 tries to get him to even phase 2 but the moment he did I killed him without even getting hit
>>483980245I got disqualified from a tournament once for tripping my opponent while grabbing his forearm to keep him from striking me.
>>483980960It's not balanced and probably not intended, but it isn't a bugThat's all I was sayingBugged and unbalanced are two different things
>>483980805If it was a McDojo I wouldn't have done amateur UFC fights (until my asthma proved too much for dealing with 15 minutes of stalling because holy fuck there are a lot of fags that treat it like boxing and try to win purely off rules instead of fighting)
none of you will ever be japanese
is it just me hearing it or was that the bonfire lit sound at 1:07? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmSJchE9vkE
Dumb question, but is Messmer immune to frost?
>>483980952There's an issue when you can't simulate lethality well enough. It's almost impossible to stop someone who's acting suicidal, it's very easy to hit someone if you're willing to get hit yourself, but you can't really hammer that home with blunt swords. In my experience larpers often don't notice the subtle blows that would have stopped them.
What type of lo mein should I get to enjoy Elden Ring today? Shrimp, Beef, or Chicken?
>>483980930But the Tarnished, a guy she just met, is somehow the most trustworthy of her group.
>>483980834>What modern combat sport actually teaches weapons?Taichi, technically. It's not a combat sport but it did in fact originate as a bodyguard's martial art, and I did see a HEMAtard get his shit rocked by some chinese girl that dislocated his jaw by accident.
Bayle is the best boss of the DLC hands down. When I fought and killed him I got that feeling that this was the peak of the DLC, and I was absolutely right.Messmer comes in a solid 2nd but I wish I had saved Bayle for later as everything just felt lacking after him.
>>483980337Makes sensethanks
>>483980914meant for >>483980529
>>483980245That’s such horse shit kek, there are loads of full manuals out there, more than any Asian system as a fact. Which modern combat systems are people going against various medieval combat systems as well?
I don't even feel like I beat him because I couldn't tell what was going on in phase 2 and think I just got a lucky run rolling through snake visual pollution.
>>483981117Okay? I never wanted to in the first place.
>>483980914It's pretty clear the more you talk that you understand how retarded the plot is yet you're trying desperately to defend it anyways. It makes you look insane. It's honestly very cute, in a super sad way.But anyways, the idea that Miquella already got rid of his body and that's what left in the cocoon is stupid, because you know, we have the crosses to show where he left his parts. It's just a plothole for a video game, you are not meant to think about it. Which I hate.
>>483980245What does this reddit post have to do with what I said.
>>483981148Prawn, obviously.
>>483981139It's not really being suicidal because HEMAfags never actually understand space control with their weapons, I've never seen one use a spear to actually control space instead of jab at people randomlyAs a general rule you cannot win against someone with a weapon while unarmed so long as they never raise the weapon into an attacking stance instead of a defending one, but HEMAfags never do that they're basically just rabid CoD players with sticks
>>483980716>He doesn't know

>>483981172>I saw a fat American get beaten by someone using old man work out bullshit fu on youtube onceAmazing
>>483981195Bayle's a cool spectacle but the actual mechanics of the fight are shit and you start to realize than the nth time you get flatted by a "bite" hitbox that extends to his feet or get thrown way out of position because the collision of his chest physically moves you while he zips and spazzes around with his twitchy animations.It's a good fight when you're standing back letting it attack you and watching the pretty particle effects, and a stupid fight as soon as you actually need to walk up and strike the thing in melee. Same issue as Midir, really, which was already Fromsoft's worst DLC dragon fight.
>>483981335I know you think you know the plot better than the people who wrote it but god damn. it's a FromSoft game dude. Everything is vague and DLCbait. You can't honestly think they had no idea they'd make a DLC or what it'd be about until a couple weeks before the deadlinetake meds. it's just a gay egg and you couldn't even see what was in it. You were just told it's a gigantic arm of someone that's meant to be a permanent kid. That alone was a tip-off
I love him. I love his little snake friends. He should've been the main antagonist of the DLC
>mfw using Blinkbolt: Long-hafted Axe
What happened to this? Why did /erg/ changed to damage control?
>>483981170The Tarnished's inherent 11/10 Charisma conflicts with her loyalty to Miquella. If you put in the effort, I bet you could have swayed her to your side.
CURSE YOU BALE
i really, really don't want to do the walk to midra...
>>483981531Proper tai chi is a fully-developed martial art ackshully, old man workout-fu is just a super slow versionApparently "real" taichi includes eye gouging and windpipe punches
>>483979485>not a single one of his (seven kingdoms) characters who isn't the high septon acts like they believe in their own religion, and most of them are basically straight Machiavellian (irl leaders that were too machiavellian tended to get kicked out). They barely even pay lip service to the Seven and when they do it's clearly not from the heart, which just doesn't make any senseFucking lmao, the church in Europe behaved largely like the septons from the pornocracy period all the way to the counter reformation. And even after that point you have plenty of ordained aristos treating the church like just another avenue to political power, albeit without the overt displays of vice. I mean, the high sparrow is basically Savonarola, whereas the corrupt high septons are whichever puppet of the HREmperor, spanish/french monarchs, roman barons you care to name.And many successful rulers were openly Machiavelli stans, most notably Charles I and Cromwell. There's this retarded meme that the Prince received universal opprobrium on release, when in fact the whole reason why it was criticized was that many important intellectuals and political figures showed great appreciation for it. Basically every single 16th and 17th century political theorist was strongly influenced by his ideas.>The Red Wedding gets talked about because he's betrayed hospitality, but it's also a sacrament but this never gets brought up.I feel like it's the opposite, hospitality is only considered important because it's sacred.Regardless, consequences are a matter of drama in the series, they only ensue when gurm wants to kill/humiliate somebody, not when they are warranted by previous eventsOtherwise a lot of characters would have had to die well before the plot started.
>>483981364And which manuals have you never seen that in exactly? The very fundamental of a pointy stick and you’ve not seen it
Do people still hate Gaius? Deflect tear negates the broken charge, pretty cool playing Zweihander Sekiro. Giant Hunt was silly too was able to fit 3 in a row under some attacks without getting hit. The kick will go right over your body.
>>483981558>excuses for being badJudging by everything you just coped about I'm guessing you're one of the idiots who are still trying to plant your face in his ass even though the game makes it very clear you should be by his head.Literally nothing you said is an issue when you play the fight like it is intended to be played. Also the fact that you say that MIDIR, THE BEST DRAGON FIGHT PREVIOUSLY is an example of a worst dragon shows how much of a retarded fucking shitter you are and that you also never got the hint in that fight to stay in front of him.Beating midir at SL1 was the most fun fight I've had in dark souls 3 because of just how good of a boss he is when you don't try to play like a tard.
>>483981802yes I hate him but that's mainly because I don't use any gimmicksit's me and my axe without any gimmicks vs bosses
>>483981670A 40 year old bloke that boxes casually would kill a ching chong practitioner, it’s more an art but the state enforced its image as a mystical killing power much like other asian martial arts and sword play
>>483981386if they had the power to, they'd have just mashed l2 you to death too invading is for the autistic
I might be retarded but i am not seeing any of these opening on this boss
I don't remember Gaius kicking at all. Did I get hyper (un?)lucky with RNG?
>>483981583"Thou'rt Tarnished, it seemeth." - best line of the game. It sounded like he was surprised and curious and even little bit friendly.
>>483981364The HEMA shit ive seen is that they all use space control really well>>483981139LARPERS are really aware of small hits anon. Of course a real fight of life and death and permenant injuries would change how you fight. im sure lots of moves included getting distance from a man you dealt a lethal blow to so he doest kill you as he dies. Lots of fighters probably died together due to this.
>>483981716I'm not talking about the manuals, I'm talking about how people doing HEMA actually fight.
lol
poo weapons poo armors
>>483981802I didn't mind him. I'm a shieldfag tho.
>>483981927you have to play at HIS pace. slow down.
>>483981574I'll accept that as you admitting defeat and move on. Like, you're actually saying it's not Miquella in the cocoon. You're that fucking dumb. I can't talk to something who is that fucking stupid. Objectively though, it's Miquella in the cocoon. We have a literal cutscene of him being carried away and Gideon talks about him. Leda has you touch his hand. Mohg shared his bed chamber with him. It can't be more clear and arguing otherwise is just proof that you're actually retarded.
What's it going to take for people nowadays finally say>okay this boss wasn't designed wellYou got people even defending Screen Vomit Radahn. What happened to the days of shitting on Bed of Chaos?
Were the noises for getting slimed always this erotic? I keep getting gagged in the Trina place, and its unironically doing things to me.
>>483981121If he is, I'm gonna fucking shit out of pure anger
>>483981938I kind of hoped the 'boss fight' was a ruse and he'd be friendly towards the player at first and only fight him later for another reason (like miquella knowing we're on his tale corrupting Messmer and stealing his heart making him our foe). Really felt like we could talk it out
>>483982039that's gay man
>>483981172I hate to tell you this anon, but that whole genre of chinese martial arts beating up x,y,z random other fighting style is all fake. It's a half-assed state-funded propaganda campaign, the fights are fixed or otherwise outright fake and several high-profile chinese MMA fighters have gotten into serious shit with the government for refusing to take dives to shill militant exceptionalism.None of china's martial arts are designed with violence in mind. They were conceived from the ground up as combat sports, and most are only about 100-200 years old. The idea of kung fu masters beating up druglords and colonialist invaders is a contrivance of the 70s China-mania and incumbent action movies. They are actively bad for fighting, because they are designed from the ground up to minimize the harm inflicted on the other party--because they are combat sports.
>>483978089True! By miles. Midir appearing twice, burning the cliff, then later encountering you hanging from the ledge. That was SOVL. Elden Ring - soulless
2 years later and I still havent found anything more aesthetic than godskin stitcher
>>483981945Yeah there are larp tier “””schools””” and good ones no shit, you looking at random youtube videos doesn’t make you knowledgeable enough to speak on something with any authority
>>483981927What do you mean? She's pretty slow by ER standards, not to mention by the DLC.
>483982028It's going to take you going back to /v/ nigger
>>483982028>You got people even defending Screen Vomit Radahn. What happened to the days of shitting on Bed of Chaos?Actually bed of chaos was an exceptionally good fight and youre just crying because you got filtered by bed of chaos and had to summon for it.>t. projecting disingenuous faggot
>>483982062Fextra says he weak to it, but>Fextra
How the fuck are you supposed to dodge the holy beams after Fujodahn's attacks. Even if I dodge the attack proper the follow-up still hits.
>>483982146
>>483982028No one (and by no one I mean streamers and wannabe hardcore gamers) wants to look like a pussy so they have to pretend the game is perfect in every way. I mean one look at that fucking Hippo boss should be enough for people to admit that From is full of morons but here we are.
>>483981709>And many successful rulers were openly Machiavelli stans, most notably Charles I and Cromwell.Neither of these guys are remotely medieval.>Fucking lmao, the church in Europe behaved largely like the septons from the pornocracy period all the way to the counter reformation. I'm not talking about the church but the kings and nobility. I wouldn't have objected if there were a suitable number of people who were faithless bastards, but NOBODY seems to actually believe in the Seven. That's certainly not the case for medieval Europe.>There's this retarded meme that the Prince received universal opprobrium on releaseI wasn't attacking the Prince.>16th and 17thBut it should also be noted that these are timeframes well outside the supposedly medieval setting they're in, and also that truly machievellian rule only became possible with the emergence of the centralized state of this time period, which Westeros does not have.>they only ensue when gurm wants to kill/humiliate somebody, not when they are warranted by previous eventsHence his (lack of) worldbuilding actively interferes with his characterization since they become less believable. Cersei becomes less outrageous when everyone basically acts like she does except without tits.
>>483982187my first playthrough involved a lot of godskin larping. I thought it was Gods Kin at first till I got the outfit and noticed the faces
>>483981583What do you think his face and hands would feel like?
Being "charmed" by Miquella doesn't even seem that bad.
>find a cool armor set i like>oops no 51 poise, can't use it sorry
Guess i will chug a larval tear because i am feeling extra retarded now.Constantly getting chained into some bullshit he spam
>>483981927>filtered by one of if not the slowest bosses in the DLC who even has openings during the middle of the combosSomeone keep this man away from radahn.
>>483981916That's fine? I'm not some taichi fanatic I'm just saying it's apparently a real martial art which surprised me>it's more an artNah a lot of these martial arts were developed for war, explicitlyThey only became "art" after Meiji but the old ones are absolutely legit (for their specific purpose, such as "getting a dude in armor on the ground")
>>483981670Proper tai-chi (assuming it ever existed) is at best a hema tier lost art nobody actually knows how to practically practice anymore, and everyone who says otherwise is a scammer (who won't fight you) or a victim (who will get the shit beaten out of him).>Apparently "real" taichi includes eye gouging and windpipe punchesFurther proof of bullshit. If you can gouge someone eye's out you're already controlling him completely. A windpipe punch is just a punch you aim at the throat, every boxer could use it just as effectively.
Where the heck do I go from here? I'm so lost. I grabbed the Crucible: Bloom and I don't know where else to go.
>>483976693>>483979075SOTE feels like it was designed from the top down for unga bunga strength builds and meme quality builds. All the casters, including Faith, are clearly being punished for daring to use the mechanics in the game.
>>483982428where's ur clothes
>>483976325>Finally found itSo, what was this thing about?
>Nanaya's Torch can be used by pure physical builds with a very small int/fai requirements>gives you basically the best madness spell as a WA
>>483982428>he's losing to midra with a fast weaponYou aren't going to finish this DLC without resorting to the most extreme cheese and summons with this level of skill issue.
>>483982023>it's Miquella because uhmmmm I say it is ???????????????>because NPCs affected by mind control are clearly telling me it is??????????????????Yeah I definitely remember people cursed to be a child permanently having an arm the length of a person's body. I know your twitter page is gonna have some trouble explaining your headcanon now but you'll manage
>>483981886>stand by his head>he lowers it after a long attack chain>swing>whiff because he's already reared it back up to start another attack chain>waste the entire duration of my physick waiting for my turn that's never coming.Bayle is not designed for you to stand at his head, it's an oppourtunistic target at best. His weak spot is his leg stump.Midir is an absolutely shit fight and I saw that as someone with 2k hours in DaS3. It's like playing one of those old rail shooters from the arcade where you just sit and wait for the game to tell you it's time to shoot. A completely turn-based fight. But even then, Midir at least puts his head in reach and gives you your turn when you wait out his attack chains. Bayle never has to let you hit his head because every recovery can end immediately into another move that pulls it out of reach, you get to hit his head only when his AI decides not to queue anything, and it will usually queue something as long as you're standing in front of it. The best fight of the Ringed City is is the Demon Princes and only redditors claim otherwise.
>>483982028Radahn's only problem is that the light pillars make the boss a nightmare to read and his retard nuke drops everyone's FPS
>>483982413What's the 51 poise break meant for exactly? I just bought the knight set for my new character which happens to have 51 poise
>>483982428Maybe you should try wearing some actual armor, dragontard.
>>483982113Im a woman though. (Ingame)
>>483982617how the fuck Midra is slow? Messmmer was easier too deal with
>>483982542What, you don't want to use those high stat requiring, long animation casting, gluttonous FP costing, low damage dealing spells?
>>483982151>None of china's martial arts are designed with violence in mindAgain, that's the modern ones. Nobody cares about the modern ones>b-but all of them are modernNah. Every military aristocracy in the world has traditional fighting styles that worked.>>483982193t. HEMAnigger who would get btfo by any old dude with a stick and basic training in boxing or some shit
>>483982573I think he was just talking about thw fact that since it deals with wanting to kill miquella, he was wondering if like it like would change her line if you kill him first
>>483982625he's actually trying to argue that Miquella isn't in the cocoon. Everyone. Laugh at him.
>>483982532Yeah I have no idea. I think you're meant to warp out because everything is a dead end.
Is Lord's Divine Protection good against Radahn?
>>483981938At first I really didn't like the voice change, thought the trailer voice had better deliveries, but it grew on me, especially after learning how miserable his life has actually been
>>483982428It's a parry fodder boss, equip that buckler/golden parry/carian parry
>>483982679basically it allows you to tank a light attack from most mobs without getting instantly staggeredif youre below that 51 threshold, anything staggers you
>>483982695You're supposed to make and play as yourself, if you're a man you're supposed to make a man
>>483982695You mean type B, shitlord?
Alright, someone give me ideas how to beat Miq and his fuckpuppet on a 70 faith, 13 str, 11 dex set up. It's clear to me I will never have time for Aeonia so my mushroom crown/kindred of rot setup is useless. My weapon choices are pretty limited. I have no problem using a shield but I only have the stats for shit like the heater shield and even with barricade on it, it doesn't seem to be enough. What do? I'm not a proud man, any ideas are welcome.
FC?
>NG+7>No Skadutree blessings>Level 1Has anyone done it yet?
>>483982625You're saying it's NOT Miquella in the cocoon? Did you even play the game? Post hours right now.>So. The Haligtree, now but a husk... I heard speculation Miquella embedded himself in the Haligtree, but before he could finish, someone cut the tree open and absconded with his infant form.>Mohg, you rotten Omen, your blood is cursed!>Give him back>Give Lord Miquella back!>How dare you lay hands on such precious flesh!

>>483982792You use Leda's account that it's definitely Miquella's hand but she was only added in the DLC, yet for some reason she can't tell the difference between cocoon giant and prebuescent boy in the next realm over lol. This is the same lady that was only added in the same DLC that says she's mind controlled>>483982936>infant = gigantic old man armlol

>>483982654Buddy. If I can reliably hit his head with a charged R2 from iron balls (fist weapon) on most of his attacks but you somehow can't manage to hit his head then you're the one who is at fault here not the game.You have no excuse. You're either timing your attacks wrong, positioning wrong or rolling wrong or a combination of all.The fact alone that you call midir a shit fight and a bad dragon boss just shows how little you actually know about the game mechanics. You're literally going like this in your cope.>yeah man I need to wait for the boss to attack and recover to hit himWell, no shit sherlock you just discovered boss fights in the souls series. Congratulations. Honestly you're at fault in both these fights. If I can beat midir at SL1 and have the best time against any boss I've ever had doing it because of how fair he is when you stay at his head and have the exact same experience with Bayle whilst using the shortest range weapon in the game yet you somehow claim you can't it is totally a you issue.
The bleedpill is looking real good right about now.
>>483983082Post hours.
So the smiths.....they're supposed to be some kind of domesticated giants or trolls by the tower?Assumedly they had some role in the manufacturing of the ring, since they have such a clear affinity for divine smithing?Woulda liked to see more of that, rather than a couple rando dungeons with intentionally annoying enemies.
Other than a boss is there any reason to bother with the stealth part of abyssal woods? If I ever replay this DLC I think I'll just go for the scooby doos in the church and then fuck off and never touch that area again
>well beyond recommended specs>Radahn's lightshow still makes the framerate slow to a crawl
>>483982992It absolutely does. NG+4 here and every boss has a little over 50k hp.
>>483983114she will murder any other woman you glance at for longer than 0.05 seconds
>>483983149
>>483983169There isn't a reason to bother with them in the first place. You can parry those fags and instakill them.
>>483982936Noty him butYou forgot about "I heard speculation" part. Rather disingenious, no? It's also what Miquella would *want* people to believe. Do you take every single line from NPCs at face value? Are you retarded?
>>483983249That's ok I'm never leaving my leda cave
>>483983123>werks on my machineSure, bud. Keep shoveling the slop. It's good because the lights flashed. I loved the spectacle. Pretty colours! Avengers assemble amirite xDBy the way, Sinh is the only good dragon fight Fromsoft has ever made.
>>483982936No anon, see, it's totally not Miquella. Cus.. cus... I mean I know the cutscene... but... See it can't be Miquella because that would mean the story is a piece of shit and has a really huge and obvious plothole. So it just can't be! Mind control! Insulting Godwyn meme! Slur!
I can't shake the feeling that Skadutree blessings only exist so the devs can pretend they designed fair bosses. Because no amount of buffs evens any of these guys out.
>>483982472But your point was the various European ways of using a sword of which we have massive documentation are gimmick shit because a little girl using taichi beat someone? There are loads of martial arts that worked and loads that existed for fun or appearances. New great shield we just got, there’s an 80 page treatise on that thing and it was written for rich assholes to play with something unique. But there are also a silly amount out there for various swords be it in armour or out of it from loads of different nations around Europe. Only real issue with “HEMA” as we’ve got to call it now because fencing is too old fashioned I guess is idiots on youtube that like to larp and the fact that Asian countries mystify their equivalents.
>>483983216>recipe says to bake cookies for 17 minutes>bake them for 400 minutes>they burn
reminder that if you don't think infants look like the old decayed giant king from dark souls you approve of RETCONS
>yeah man midir is awful you can't sit at his head the game doesn't encourage it he's super unfair blah blah blah blahhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7a6U00NlPKQhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bKjbTLdb0U
>>483979448What I don't get is why their so attached to Miquella. We literally knew next to nothing about his actual personality until the dlc. They basically just made up a character in their head then got mad it wasn't cannon.
Does Malenia say anything new if you enter her boss room with Miquella's circlet?
>>483983270The scene literally paints MOHG and MIQUELLA. What the fuck are you on about? Anon isn't talking about "Miquella wants people think he was kidnapped" but "Miquella is not in the cocoon!"
>>483983114Imagine mating pressing Leda after beating her gank fight
>>483982872Bleed weapon with the block tear. Can do that pretty easily and can block every attack.Lightning Perfume with Rolling Sparks/Mists whatever it's called. Buffed with madness hat, madness talisman, perfume talisman, alexander charm, rakshasa set, probably other shit. Summon either spirit ashes or another player. If you summon spirit ashes, I'd go for a mimic desu, mimics are strong as fuck. 70 faith, you and a mimic with Ancient Dragon Lightning Storm.There's a few ez modes.
rate my spell loadout, what would you change or add?
>>483983149>>483983254I haven't killed Messmer yet, but I'm getting the feeling that he has quite literally nothing to do with the actual plot of the DLC. He didn't even mention Miquella in the cutscenes.
>>483983372This retard is still pretending that Miquella isn't in the cocoon. Holy shit. He actually never played the game. That's the only fucking excuse. Laugh at him. Everyone laugh at the retard.
>>483982936How large is Miquella? He looks like he's around the size of an normal adult. Considering how large Mohg is.
>>483982028I mean this unrionically, that will never happen.It has nothing to do with if complaints are justified or not. Regardless of the conditions around it, if it exists, you will ALWAYS have people say it's perfectly designed.This isn't the first series to go through this and it won't be the last.
>>483983123>werks on my machineSure, bud. Keep shoveling the slop. It's good because the lights flashed. I loved the spectacle. Pretty colours! Avengers assemble amirite xD. Today you're learning that you enjoy bad things, and the fact that you personally enjoy them doesn't change the objectively bad elements of their design. You just look past them because you enjoyed that the fight was pretty.By the way, Sinh is the only good dragon fight Fromsoft has ever made.
Seriously not finding a moment to even use Dragonmaw agaist Midra
>>483983375who said that?
>>483983308I think you dropped this by the way.Please do everybody a favour and do not provide any of your horrible uninformed and underkilled takes in the future.Kind regards,Everyone who isn't retarded
>>483983497>How large is Miquella?His dick? Big.But a kid-sized demigod is around the same size as our Tarnished. (1,70 or 1,80cm, don't remember)
Putrescent Knight is the worst boss in the entire game holy shit it's literally the "when is it my turn to attack" meme but real
does anyone on PC have a spare Magic Scorpion Charm they'd be willing to drop for me? I missed it first time around.
>>483983353My point is that the retarded modern combat sport combination of different sword styles spanning 300+ years is gimmick shit because it doesn't take into account the actual goal and context of the styles, not that any of the actual base sword styles or quarterstaff manuals were gimmick shit (though there were stinkers in there too probably).
Guys I don't think any of this lore shit matters. No need to get worked up over this vague shit without any real backstory.If you take it at face value the story really is about a homosexual twink who raised his brother from the dead because he wanted to be fucked by him. That's fine, because our job is to kill him.
>>483983481adula
>>483982753>boxing>sticksThis fat fuckers never been in a single fight in his life yet just loves talking about them kek
I just died to Midra's first phase
>>483982797Ok I found the boss. From the Rauh Ancient Ruins, West, go upstairs towards the bouncing flame dudes and turn left in the big hall, don't go back outside. There will be a lift there. I missed it completely before.
Elden ring isn't a videogame, it's a $60 ego booster The developers have created a fanbase culture shilling their games as "for the real gamers", despite being filled to the brim with crutches that let even the most braindead normie complete them The normies take on the challenge to prove they are the realest gamers, use all the mechanics it provides since they aren't autistic, leisurely cruise to the end and feel like they've achieved something monumental because the autists that prop up the game as challenging play naked, without summons, fists only and with a buttplug up their ass It's a perfect scheme
miquella is definitely in the cocoon because the cocoon is where he found and rescued freya and not in the rotten shithole (that became a rotten shithole after he kidnapped)
I summon my clone for Leda gang rape fight
>>483983260I have always been terrible at parrying and I'm not going to learn only for these assholes
>>483983410>scene literally paints No, it's Some guy saying Something. And that anon is claiming it must be real Miquella in the cocoon because uhhhh.
>>483983481Loretta's Mastery/Bow has pretty good range and is useful in pveCarian Piercer/Slicer are very usefulYou lack a get the fuck off me spell, try ghostflame or black flame ritual or something
>>483983573This retard.>>483982654>>483981558
>>483983410The plot is so bad that it doesn't work if Miquella's body is in the cocoon.Miquella's body is in the cocoon.These people do not want to accept that the story has many plotholes and it really poorly done, so they are saying shit that is obviously retarded and easily disproven. It's not about them being right, it's about them being loud and retarded for so long they'll feel like they won.
Is there some bullshit going on with Radahn? You know what I'm talking about, the one where he does a cross-slash.He has a three-hit string where one of the hits is undodgeable.
>>483983701Did you get grabbed?
Why is lightning the only bottle with overlapping hitboxes? I wanna shotgun bosses with my madness farts.
>>483983537I don't think Midir was particularly good but it definitely wasn't that bad. It was an incredibly boring fight due to Midir still just being a dragon and that meaning you dodge 4 moves on loop from fight start until (wait dodge the phase transition first) fight finish. The entire difficulty of that fight came from not greeding over more damage due to how bloated everything was in DLC2 that wasn't Gael.
>>483983703The Souls fandom is pretty similar to a cult a lot of the time. It's worth a Netflix Documentary
>>483979448Found another one.
>>483983690Boxing might not use sticks but it gives you an actual sense of distance and some footwork (the wrong footwork but that's better than nothing)>never been in a single fight in his lifeYeah I haven't been in one of your overstructured fights that don't reflect anything except your overencumbered rulesets, the only fights I've been in were ones with people using baseball bats
>>483983573My man got blown out in an argument so now he's strawmannign and crying to the void. He can't address any actual argument so he's gotta make them up instead.
>>483983703I was gonna say it's not really fromsofts fault but they did make a "prepare to die" edition so it probably is
>>483983893Gael's HP pool is still incredibly bloated. It's just that he's actually so fun to fight that it's hard to notice because you're in the zone.
>>483983830yesit's impossible to dodgeno-hit runners use crucible talisman to get an invincible backstep into roll
>>483983718Okay have fun with your trial and error stealth section that is 20 minutes long.
>>483983484He's hot
>>483983639That’s not how it works at a proper fencing school, you train a certain style same as any katana system or what have you. Not some random mish mash of shit, you’re just making things up now.
It's me in the cocoonI originally didn't want to go in the cocoon but Miquella railed me and then charmed me (in that order, it was rape)Then he told me to keep my arm outside of the cocoon (I'm 3 metres tall so it drapes really far down)Then some guy touched it and that was pretty gay, so I casted Warp on him and sent him to the other realmI don't really get the point of all this but Miquella said he'd come back and let me out of the cocoon soon
>>483982294>I wouldn't have objected if there were a suitable number of people who were faithless bastards, but NOBODY seems to actually believe in the SevenWe've been given a few, historically. Bonifer's band, that one hyper religious targ king off the top of my head.It's true that gurm prefers to write excessively convoluted (veering on chuuni master plan style bullshit) politics, but I never got the feeling people are irreligious in the setting at all.>the supposedly medieval setting they're in>Neither of these guys are remotely medieval.Neither is the setting tb h. A lot of shit we're shown belongs to the early modern period, tech and mentality wise.The main inspo for the series was the war of the roses, with Lann(ister/ancaster) fighting the (Sta/Yo)rk.We're at best at a transitional point between middle ages and early modern, at worst just of mashup of premodern memes like 90% of fantasy settings.>truly machievellian rule only became possible with the emergence of the centralized state of this time period, which Westeros does not have.Absolutely not. Machiavelli's discourse runs completely around political relations, not administration.Everything he says would have worked just as well in every historical period, and it's no surprise since the main inspiration is Xenophon.>Hence his (lack of) worldbuilding actively interferes with his characterization since they become less believable. I don't know if I agree it falls into worldbuilding, but his lack of understanding of how politics and warfare works does flatten his characters a lot, that's for sure.

>>483984264good job cutie
>>483984184I got seen by a rat or something a couple times and the thing ran over. Had no idea what was happening for awhile.
God Midra has got like no fucking poiseCasting spells was stupid, I just stunlocked him with DMGS.
Radahn was still easier than malenia.Learning how to dodge waterfowl at close range and her clone attack in phase 2 was more technically difficult than any attack radahn does.The only attack even remotely scary from radahn is the one you can't reliably roll since it inflicts chip and puts you on a timer (obviously easily negated if you use a shield or ashes of war).
>>483984363
>>483984264>2 handed strength buildyou did not beat anything
What is Leda weak too?
>>483984157Then I've never fucking seen one for swordfighting that stuck rigorously to one style, though ironically I've seen historical ARCHERY and a pankration place
>>483984363for every tenth enemy attack you get one attack?
>>483983484You're right, he barely has anything to do with the main plot of the DLC despite being the most interesting character
My favorite piece of DLC lore is that some of the bugs are nice and can coexist with humans.
>>483982028At least the absurdity of the running back to bed of chaos only to immediately get knocked down gave me a few good laughsRadahn on the other hand literally doesn't give you time to breathe, some of his supposed punish windows were so narrow my halberd attacks were getting punished because he recovers before I can even finish my attack animation, this is just too demanding for me to have time to contemplate and have a laugh at the stupidity of this situationI also already disliked Radahn before the DLC so that doesn't help
>>483984480Shotas.
>>483984168God isn't that the case. Even if for some, utterly retarded reason it wasn't Miquella in the cocoon. Like if that was the retcon. It still would be shitty writing - a terrible twist coming from no where.It not being Miq in the cocoon is not a win. If anything it's even worse. Just flat out bad story telling.This doesn't matter though because it's Miq in the cocoon and anyone who thinks otherwise has not played the game.

What's the difference between the jars in the land of shadow and the lands between? I'm getting thrown off a loop by them now. The shadow jars are older and are made by the hornsent who use them as a twisted punishment but also to make "saints" as like a holy ritual. In particular, they used numen/shamans who they persecuted and whose flesh melded very well. Why would there be jars in the lands between when Marika shoah'ed the hornsent for their jars practices? Is there anything that elaborates on this?

>>483984374Thanks :^3just want to beat the whole thing with this cosplay. i love crossbows. not the greatest thing against these fucking bosses because they're always on your ass and it can take a ton of bleed bolts to bleed them out, and explosive bolts don't do enough damage to bosses, and they can just reaction dodge to the side most of the time, BUT outside of boss fights? fucking incredibly fun and useful.
>>483984473You shitters really need to stop trying to spin this thing around because you're really bad at it since you don't understand the fundamentals of the game and what makes something broken or not.
>>483984579I don't get why you're talking like I'm not literally telling you it's me in the cocoon. It's me, I'm in the cocoon. I sent Miquella to the shadow realm and then I sent the first fag who touched me there too because I don't want any fags but him touching meHe told me that if I'm in this cocoon no one's gonna question where he is until it's too late for anyone to stop him (from raping me, I assume)
>>483984514Where does it say that. Also did you know that the red snakes on Messmer are his close friends that help keep the abyssal serpent contained?
I CAN'T FUCKING SEE ANYTHING DURING PHASE 2 BLARGGGHHH
I got it all figured out. "Gaea" is in the cocoon.Gaius is an Albinauric. Miquella was supposed to be the saviour of Albinaurics. But he lost himself. Gaius knows this.It was cut content, but he would say in the boss fight: "Forgive me, Gaea" and then kill his boar for a power up.
>>483983830Yeah that move is literally impossible to dodge reliably (you CAN dodge it with just rolls but he you need to be significantly far around to his sides when he starts it so it's just luck if he throws it out when you're in that position). Even the hyperautists that do the absurd challenge runs are having to either block one of the swings in it or use ashes of war or the talisman that gives you more iframes on backstep so you can backstep and recover quick enough to roll the second slash.It's the only objectively flawed move in the entire series as far as I know given that it requires you to use something outside of your base movement kit.I imagine it will get changed in a patch before long.
How to get boiled crab if Boggart died in liurnia and I've done Volcano manor?
>>483984174>Neither is the setting tb hYeah but here's the problem, the bit that still is medieval precludes a lot of their attitude; namely the feudal/manorial system they seem to operate one.>Absolutely not. Machiavelli's discourse runs completely around political relationThe problem here is that his discourse works poorly, or at least, doesn't tend to look like GRRM's world, when personal relationships form the bedrock of your political and military power.Anyway I just hate the fat fuck and I hate him even more for his statements that ackshully he's just portraying things how they really were :^)))))) like what a fucking niggerHave a leda

The Bewitching Branch in no way sets up how fucking retarded the DLC is. If you could read you would know this. Also.>Can't bewitch Radahn.Wow, almost like that shit was never planned and instead made up for some cheap fan service at the cost of creating some horrible plot holes and ruining their own story.

>>483984756I'm sorry I questioned you. It all makes sense now Mr. In The Cocoon. I'm sorry about that crazy bitch Leda.
>>483984473you people don't bother me anymore. i've already decided your opinion doesn't matter to me. as long as you don't summon or use a greatshield or cheese (like rolling sparks, i mean literally broken shit), everything is fair game imho. if you don't like it, fuck off i don't care.
>>483985090aren't the ants being mind-controlled by the nox? I know the ants will breed the nox girls if you knock them off
>>483984794Go to the turtle and trade a celestial dew >>483985012>The Bewitching Branch in no way sets up how fucking retarded the DLC is.Yeah it does. Mind control is the dumbest and laziest plot device known to man.
The DLC could have been a bit better just by removing and rearranging things:1. remove the Radahn bossfight and change the story so the Messmer killed Miquella or something 2. change Messmer to final boss. 3. add around 5 Bloodborne type enemy models to Abyssal woods profit.
My only big bosses left are Bayle and Miquella with his golden cumsock.Which should I leave for last? I was thinking Bayle since dragons are cooler, he has better writing and my guy looks knightly so a knight vs dragon scenario to top it all off seemed rather good.Also, have there been any new lewd outfit combinations with the DLC pieces? Or are goldmask's rags and the albinauric chest and malenia legs still the only lewd options?The latter doesn't even work right because of the color mismatch
>>483984759https://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Forager+Brood+Cookbook+(1)They're friendly with Moore at least, so it means that some sort of communication is possible.
am i supposed to reach the giant ladder in shadow keep before i kill Messmer, or does killing him change anything in the castle? did i mess it up by turning the mobile too early? it just feels weird to be at Messmer already, his room also seems entirely disconnected from the rest of the castle.
>>483985221Bayle, Miquella is a pain in the ass.
>>483984941>shieldmight as well just use mimic lmao
>>483985197>Mind control is the dumbest and laziest plot device known to man.Amnesia remains the king in this field.
>low level invasions>not even twinking, keeping it at items you'd find in stormveil castle to keep things fair for potentially new players>keep using low poise armor, again, to be nicer towards newer players>every phantom is just some dlc monster who can literally one-tap me>these are the people that are people are co-oping withMan, I'm the kind of person who doesn't mind if people want to co-op but at that point you're not even doing co-op, you're just getting carried by your friend and I really do fail to see what enjoyment you'd get out of it. Not even from an invasion standpoint, just from a gameplay perspective. Why would you even play the game at that point?
>>483985227Moore is one of them isn't he? Or at least is like Gowry
>>483985283I don't like summons. They're lame conceptually.
What's a good infusion path to go for on Black Steel Greathammer? If I go flame art then it will get three damage types since it keeps its holy damage. Right now I have 80 str and 25 fai but I can respec.
>>483985227I've been getting these and I don't even know who this Moore fucker is. Where do I find him? I just walked up to a bug and could talk to him. I guess the non-red ones are chill.
>>483985012Name all the potholes and explain how it ruined the story. It still fits perfectly with what's been laid out.
>>483985315I mean are they actually password phantoms or nibbas who have cheated in the items
>>483985012If you don't see how the last paragraph casts doubt on his character as an epic wholesome chungus then I just can't help you with your autism.
>>483985315Stfu faggot nobody needs to put up with you. You're like a rapist crying that children on a playground on protected by adults.
>>483985190>Breaks mind control (which is probably just them using pheromones to manipulate ants, who work around pheromones)>Immediately try to kill themIt doesn't work on a bunch of other creatures, either. Nox included. For example: Dragons, Knights (under demigods names), demihuman queens, etc.
>>483985197>Go to the turtle and trade a celestial dewSure but how do you progress Boggart when Volcano is done and Rya is gone? He won't move to the moat if you can't progress = no way to get boiled crab?
>>483985283>medium shieldit's fine. medium shields are good but not braindead like a FP shield. especially if you're not just expecting to shieldpoke everything to death from safety. you actually have to dedicate talisman space to it to make it even useable in the first place, and you actually have to git gud at stamina management or you'll get guardbroken and eat 10,000 hits.
>>483985315You know how all those snowblind engine games (Dark Alliance 1 and 2, Champions of Norrath 1 and Return to Arms were great couch experiences despite being easy as piss.People play Elden Ring like that. I sort of miss those days.
>>483985397Password phantoms.>>483985492What the fuck are you talking about?
>>483985529>Immediately try to kill them*breedThe ONLY non-player-skeleton command grab in the entire game
>>483985279>Miquella is a pain in the ass.Radahn go back to biting the pillow
>>483985371As soon as you name every single number. Also I already listed two of the biggest ones. Miqeulla suddenly having two bodies and the entirety of Miquella being behind his own kidnapping.It's all just objectively stupid, there is no reason to try and defend it. It's trash. It's stupid. Also, it's done. I don't think we're getting an Elden Ring 2. Pretty sure this shit is just done and Fromsoft is gonna move on to the next souls-like.
>BAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYLEEEEEEEWhat the fuck was his problem?
What the fuck do you do against poise maxers in pvp now holy shit kek it’s like dark souls 1
>>483985647He's a retard but he's a based retard
>>483985641You're probably talking to the dedicated Bandai employee here.Just kidding, people come here to shitpost. And defending things people are hating on is a way to get (You)s
>>483985724>What the fuck do you do against poise maxers in pvp nowCarian piercer/haima hammer still flattens everythingAlso the super fire pots
>>483985585Wtf are YOU talking about faggot? You're crying that the noobs you invaded are being escorted by capable friends?You dumb psycho queer.>nooo just let me murder new players!!! Ugghh!!!! Just let me grief them!!!
>>483985371>Name all the potholesFucking LB government can't even fix the roads
>>483984612This has been asked a thousand times now.The Hornsent invented the living jarsThey would cull other living things, stuff their meant in jars and ferment them into meat goo that they'd pile in Enir Ilim. This is the Crucible, it's a giant heap of jar-meat, a colossal battery of life-energy the Hornsent call upon and harness via its rituals. Marika's people were wiped out by the Hornsent because they made exceptionally good jar-meatUnder the Golden Order, Marika gave the jars new purpose. They collect the remains of fallen warriors and heroes and transport them to the Erdtree's roots, where the tree takes them in and rebirths them in an eternal cycle of reincarnation. This cycle is broken with the Shattering, hence all the zombified nobles wandering aimlessly, left to age forever instead of reincarnating into newer bodies.
>>483985429That doesn't mean anything Anon. When you say stuff, make sure it has meaning. I'm just explaining the plotholes and how shitty the plot holes are. You posting a random item description doesn't do anything but show how little you actually know about the story =/.But yeah, Miquella can compel people. He also has a connection to dreams, via St. Trina. I imagine the dream connection was going to be more important before all the retcons but eh.
how do i make my character mega ultra chad big muscularce?
>>483985647he's captain ahab and bayle is his moby dick
>>483983082Miquella is cursed with eternal youth
Just finished soloing radahn, don’t know what people are complaining about with this fight….but seriously the chip damage from the light beams on every swing was the biggest hurdle. Take away the chip damage and it’s a 10/10 experience.
>>483978204And they're still the dominant group in Enir-Ilim
>trailer makes Messmer look like a douchebag>beyond the layers of mommy issues he's a decent guy who built a hospital for jar victims and even tried to preserve ancient history while redirecting all curses thrown at Marika onto himself>was genuinely hurt by the betrayal of his top knights>valued his frienship with albinauric boar rider>had actually faithful and decent men serving himIf only the dude was okay with MC being a lord...

What element is Midra weak against? I'm on 13 skibidis and still do like no fucking damage to the cunt.
>snake gimmickrykard>mommy issuesmorgott>bothmessmerwho did it better?
>Godrick: Dead>Radahn: Dead>Mohg: Dead>Red Bear: Dead>Ralva: Dead>Rugalea: DeadFinally, I can play the game...
>>483985318The description says that the non-human forager brood shared these cookbooks with Moore. To me it implies that they're not the same species and Moore is human. There's also nothing indicating that he's a bug.>>483985367He's near the grace the stairs that lead to Belurat, sitting in front of a bunch of crates. He's pretty hard to miss.
>>483985861There is a very distinct difference between "capable friend" - somebody who is better than them but is playing the game WITH them, and somebody who is very obviously hundreds of levels higher than them and playing the game FOR them.
>>483985859>>483986038It’s crazy if you don’t have a weapon big enough and enough poise to trade. What did they change?
>>483985861>>483985492>coopers comparing invasions to child rapistscan't make this shit up. wow.
>>483986156Stance break
>>483986174Morgott is not mommy issues. He just wants to be a true Lord.

when are we having a dlc fight clubI want to use these new things in pvp but don't want to do invades
>>483986257Who cares fucking fag. You're trying to bother people. You baby dick retard crying about not being able to murder noobs who probably don't even know how to two hand their sword.
CELEBIMBO, BRING ME YOUR ASS
>>483984825>when personal relationships form the bedrock of your political and military power.That's literally all power ever. Which is why like 3/4 of the Prince is pure PR advice. When to do what to ensure people think well (or the least possible bad) of you in spite of all the bullshit you do.The issue is that gurm couldn't write machiavellian if his life depended on it. Tywin, Tyrion, Cersei, Olenna, Littlefinger, they act like a bloodthirsty retards 90% of the time, yet we're supposed to think they're smart. Machiavelli would consider them all absolute retards.The issue is not that gurm is applying an anachronistic mindset, the issue is that gurm is a hack.
>>483986242>killing Godrickweak
>>483986257Easy solution (they'll never do this) :Remove password summons from the game. Random summons that are around the host's level only. Unironically how the game was originally designed to be played. Never forget what they took from you, /erg/.
>>483986070I do accept you concession, yes. I also accept that you're actually fucking retarded and that you have nothing meaningful to say. You fucking moron. I can't believe we got cunts posting a picture like it means anything. It's like, we already know more about the lore then you do. We know about the Bewitching Branch. I get that you're too retarded to understand it but that doesn't mean other people don't.Miquella can compel people. It's part of his curse. Same with his sister, who infects people. These are parallels. This does nothing to explain any plans or wants or ANYTHING. god how are you people so stupid. READ A BOOK. IT'S NOT HARD. It'll do you some good!
>>483986550>Tywin, Tyrion, Cersei, Olenna, Littlefinger, they act like a bloodthirsty retards 90% of the time, yet we're supposed to think they're smart. Machiavelli would consider them all absolute retards.That is fair, I used the word machiavellian in the generic sense of the word, not "I actually read the Prince" sense of the word
>>483986341>experienced predator going to a low level area to prey on new and helpless individuals is upset they have guardians around.Reminds me of something.
>Struggle with Bayle >Kill Midra, Bud and Messmer in the span of about 30 minutesThose bosses really need better stance health.
>>483986551I had to for Varre's quest. Doesn't he require two great runes to move?
>>483986728Stance break is retarded as a mechanic change my mind
>Mind control plot device under any circumstance>His body is shrivelled up in the cocoon, but actually he was perfectly fine and was discarding his body again in the land of shadow>He gave up his body, his "blinding strength", his fate and love. But actually he has a new divine body now, is still attached to his love, can cast Holy and move anyone at the speed of lightThis is Dragonball level of horsefuckery with a different dressing. Nobody can effectively pretend otherwise. If someone posted their headcanon about their own Tarnished doing this shit, you'd all be laughing at them because it's so fucking bad.
>>483986426There are two sleep weapons though. Get needle from Thiollier.
I'm crafting a Dueling Shield build. Do the Faith weapon buffs scale with your Incantation Scaling or do they add a flat amount of damage to your weapon?
>>483986780You get stance broken if you try to climb a flight of stairs.
>>483986728as a stancebreak enjoyer i must admit that its too easy sometimes
objective tier list
>>483986758varre just needs 1 great rune
>>483986901Thats still pretty bad. I really don't even know why sleep as a status exists outside cheesing the godskin noble fight and that one bear in the DLC.
>>483986913Yeah I do because I'm a clumsy fuck
>>483986496Again, I am literally putting all the cards in their hands. I have less healing than they do, I have the same upgrade levels they do, I'm probably using worse armor than they do. They will naturally always outnumber me. I am literally the one who eases them INTO invasions, if it wasn't for somebody who I can very clearly tell is well over level 300 - 400 just cleaning house for them.I don't know why you're so absolutely stupidly aggressive about this. It's literally part of the game mechanics and I am the one actually trying to play nice about it.
So. How exactly were we supposed to get Ranni to drink Seluvis' potion. She's made out of straw right? I'm pretty sure she doesn't eat or drink, so how was that ever supposed to work?
>>483985874>This is the CrucibleCrucible is all life divested by the Greater Will. The jar meat is made into the Gates.
>>483985492>>483986660>>483986496are you a rape victim? cause we are talking about a video game, you retarded faggot.
>>483987041>that one bear in the DLCwhich one?
>>483987015>martialniggers>thinking man
Casually walking around comfy in the DLC, go to an area with some flowers and it turns out to be Marika's housethe music that starts playing bros.. the atmosphere... absolute KINO
>>483987102Taking it a little personal are we faggot?
>>483986823It could have been cool. Instead of flat out mind control he could compel those around him to love him through no action of his own. This would be super cool while also being much like a curse. Mohg stealing him would not be part of the plan.Instead we get the single worst option possible. An option only a subhuman would defend. It's SO BAD.
>>483987034Damn, I'll remember that for my next run.
Does your poise matter at all if you’re using a light weapon like a dagger or claws?
>>483987140it's so sad...
>>483986651Take a breather nigger. Also you are wrong about everything and my Lore Knowledge is more bigger than yours. Worm.
So is there any kind of reward or consequence for marking all the cross locations? Even just some extra dialogue of something? Or is it just being able to read the lore blurbs and mark them on your map
>>483987124This guy. You can sleep him, get a free crit, then just sleep him again instantly until he dies.
>>483987140You're not supposed to like it Shit empt, area with no loot or enemies Just a huge area of nothing
>>483987015confessor got that rizz
>>483986660JFC, you're one of those feminists who believe all men are harvey weinstein, aren't you? insufferable.
>>483987373who is harvey weinstein
>>483987184right, now take your meds.
>>483987292Do you even need to cheese him? He fights almost exactly like a normal bear except for a few "stomps" I killed him first try and all i got was so retarded bear hat
>>483987273no
>mini dancing lions in the final areaI thought I was done with this shit
dry-leaf feels poo shit shart to play with
>>483987224yeah it's the same thingit's just that heavier weapons give you "free" poise when you're attacking
>>483987239It's pretty clear you lost and don't know what you're talking about on even the most basic level man. It's okay, you like the game, you can't help yourself. I just wish you were more self aware.Anyways, so long as your not stupid enough to tell other people that Miquella isn't in the cocoon. They will laugh at you and it'll out you as an idiot who doesn't know even the most basic lore of the game. Gonna want to avoid that.
>>483979075>carian thrusting shield>carian sovereignty>divine beast frost stompINT didn't get much stuff but most of what it got was good.
>>483987485what's wrong? you want new enemies? stupid fucking white piggu
>>483986910They scale exclusively with the FAITH PORTION of the incantation scaling. So using shit like the clawmark seal will give you shit buffs.I run a faith build using a dueling shield and smear on 260 lightning damage. It's alright. But i'm fairly certain going full quality likely leads to a higher output. So unless you're exclusively going faith for Dragonbolt of Florissax I'd think pretty hard about that. Very fun though
>>483987292what about his brother(sister?)
>>483987546How do you need for claws to be able to do something about great swords that just want to trade?
>>483987498It's a status weapon.
>dodge Bayle's big laser beam>jump the ground explosion>the ground explosion still hits me????????????????????It literally recycles the vfx of a jumpable ground explosion from the base game. I was in the zenith of the jumpIf they're going to shuffle mechanics around at random why can't they just give things proper, readable vfx? I'm getting tired of this korean mmo shit where every asset is an asset flip of an asset flip of an asset flip
How can I tell if I'm on ng+ or not?I transferred my old save using a save manager and now my site of grace progress is gone and I can't tell if it's because I fucked something up or if I'm on ng+ but I'm 80% sure it's the latter just wanted to make sure

>>483987373why did the bear thing offend so many men
>>483987485Enir-Ilim was just full of bullshit.I would rather fight any of the bosses than go through that again.It is kinda cool that they could my top-tier character so cautious and scared.
>>483987453No, which is why sleep is ass.Two boss fights in the entire game make use of it, and you're better off applying other status in pvp unless you're doing some weird meme build.I legit do not know why its in the game.
>>483987557Miquella very clearly isn't in the cocoon.See: ELDEN RING Shadow of the Erdtree.

>>483987614I was running a Heavy Carian Thrusting Shield build with 54 STR and Scholar's Armament on it (I just put whatever points I had left in INT to increase the Scholar's Armament dmg), but I figured I could do literally the same thing with Faith and get access to some buffs instead. Honestly I fell in love with dueling shields, they're definitely my favorite weapons in the game now.

If you were with a group of people that played the game we'd all be staring at you like some kind of sick animal.I don't actually care that much but there is stupid and then there is "Mind broken stupid." and you past that line. Like you think Mohg didn't put Miquella in the cocoon. How the fuck do you argue against someone so stupid.

>>483987951Do you really want more souls like stuff? With how bad this DLC was story wise I just want something new. It seems like the only time fromsoft can write a good story is when it's a new IP.
>>483987015I always pick wretch because lik3 it makes like finding first armor feel more special and like gives more flexibility to respecs
I am convinced fighting the late game DLC bosses as caster solo is virtually impossibleHow the fuck you ever cast something agaist Gaius and his board lol
is any questline worth doing and if so which one

>>483987951Er and it's dlc we're nothing compared to the world building of demons and ds1. I don't see myself playing er ever again, I am going to play some ds3 in a bit though.Not really looking forward to Froms next game after this latest release
>Be summoned for Radahn a few times>haven't fought him myself, just practicing and spending time before doing it myself with content>legitimately horrid moveset even in phase 1Man fuck this, I'm gonna go jerk off
>>483987712long story short: it basically implied that the vast majority of men are monstrous rapists and the only thing stopping them from raping every woman they see is a lack of the right circumstances.do you agree with that statement or are you offended by it?
>>483977998>If it doesn't work out and they prove they can't write real stories for shit, so be itArmored Core 6 has a real story with all (most?) of the plotlines being resolved in the end and several endings and it's really good. They certainly CAN write stories. They just don't like leaving their Demon's Souls comfort zone of "it needs to be as vague as possible and everything needs to be shitty and end in a tragic way".
So was Leda dragging Mohg's corpse through the Land of Shadow to get it to Enir-Illim?
>>483987878I've been vacuumed into the grab before it even went off before. He was rearing back, head raised and then we both just snapped to the grab chomp.
Watch out! Miquella's about to do his grab attack!
>>483988087People were saying the same thing after Dark Souls 3. "Now what's the next dark souls". Instead we got Elden Ring. I imagine Elden Ring is going to be the same. No more Elden Ring stuff, that's done. It's complete. The DLC finished it.Now it's time for Miyazaki to do another IP. I bet from doesn't even do a souls-like next. Last I heard he wants to make a JRPG. So this might be all we get for a long time.
Is this move supposed to be just like Radahn's or is it present somewhere else
>>483988014You are asking for support from crowd that isnt there for you.>Like you think Mohg didn't put Miquella in the cocoon. Yes that's what the DLC implies.Anyway, with all this knowledge, why do you think it's Miquella in the cocoon?
why are bear ds so trash in ER i just want to make macho chad and mating press marika with my golden order cock
>>483987485'ellig in the /erg/
>>483988217I killed everything except radhan as Pires caster. I used scholar shield on a brass shield on gaius. Backpedaling while casting provides plenty of openings.

>>483987947I like it on faith but I like faith in general. The aforementioned Dragonbolt of Florissax raises your shield absorption to so I can trade into fire and lightning.It's alright. But I also have like 76 faith.
>>483988326There's literally not even a point to beating the final boss of the DLC.It doesnt change the story.Theres no new ending.It actually makes the story less coherent.Just dumps a bunch of runes on you, and you can rebuy a second version of Radahn's armor set or weapons that you already fucking have.
>>483987273lol dude you are playing a nu-fromsoft game what do you think
I don't care if people call me bad. These bosses are a fucking mess. The amount of visual clutter is just ridiculous. FROM desperately needs to reign their shit in. More doesn't mean better. I honestly feel like most of the difficulty comes from me not being able to tell what the fuck is even going on as bosses creating a million explosions and particle effects as they fucking spaz all over the arena. It's fucking awful. Most of my successful boss runs don't feel like I finally got good, but feel completely effortless because I got lucky and got a pattern where I was actually be able to tell what the fuck was happening.
imbibing st trina's sweet delicious cunt nectar
I probably would have like Miquella's story more if this whole Shadow Land trip was a desperation move after everything he tried failed. This whole just as planned nonsense sucks up any interest in the story.
These questlines so basic and shit. Is Ranni still the only good one?
Does it matter in any way if I forgot to summon that hornsent guy on my winning attempt?
>>483988608It's the reward of mastering a challenge.
>>483987273ansbach speaks on some of them
>>483988358no that's not what it was impliedit was a jab at men, a way to insult them and shit test themand they failed the shit test spectacularly
>>483988513
>>483988645Thiolier is the fate of all gooners
>>483987951Not to mention that Miyazaki has supposedly said that Elden Ring was their "We have tapped into everything we've got. That's it."So odds are, they might try something else. I'd honestly be kind of curious to see if they could do something like a modern King's Field with Resident Evil 7-esque controls.

>>483988503god you are so fucking stupid. No one is messing around with you and your stupid "Miquella isn't in the cocoon" shit. It's cute though. Retarded. And we're all laughing at you. But still cute.Damn huge fucking plothole though. Ranni needed to kill Godwyn to separate her body and soul. Miyazaki retconed his own story and flat out forgot that Miquellas body was already non-responsive in a cocoon. Like, how the fuck can you be that stupid? How can you tell a story that badly?Then he goes on to get rid of his body. That is in another place. It's just so shit.
>>48398650610/10 anon.
>Leda fightgod damn, they have so much HP
Why did the Haligtree fail?
What am I supposed to do against that furnace giant golem whatever near the tranny cathedral?It doesn't take damage on against it's feet (you can't even lock on) but it doesn't take any damage against it's "face" either tho you can lock onto it.
>>483988503>prove you wrong on something that doesn't need to be said>i dont believe it lolretard
I beat the dlc and I still have no idea who this "hornsent" guy you are all talking about is.I know Leda said he was probably in the black castle, but I never ran into him and never encountered him anywhere.
>>483988737Nevermind I guess it does. Next time maybe if I remember.
>>483988968You are getting angry at your disproven headcanon. To what end?

>>483988673It's very dumb, yeah. Very, very dumb.>>483988773Yeah, men saw a women post this and went ballistic, pretty much proving women correct. I'd pick a bear too. If only to out any faggots who can't control their emotions like a real man should.
>random invasion>host is a faggot with 780 hours played>summoned two phantoms for Bayle>lightning perfume abuser + dragon hunter katanaat this point your might as well use a trainer or cheat engine cause it's the same shit.
>>483989052Spirit Spring above and throw fire/furnace pots in it
>>483989017Because it was meant to fail.Miquella wasted a entire century growing it, just so he can put a giant target on his head so Mogh would abduct him, since that was the first step of the "real" plan.
ledas sword is becoming one of my favorite weapons, i fucking love the heavy attack so much
>>483988773that is what it meant. women saying that the average man is more dangerous to be alone with than a fucking bear that will eat you alive. it's disgusting, and im honestly not surprised that more than half of men age 20-40 want nothing to do with women nowadays. you get what you deserve. AI robot waifus can't come soon enough.
can someone give me an advice please!!!!!!!!!!!!im lvl 75 withvigor 40dex 35arcane 15i want to kill mohg and I don't know what would give me more damageI use nagakiba+8 (i want to get a dlc weapon so i don't want to waste smithing stones)what would be more profitable:keen+bloodflame blade (nagakiba bleed 45, dmg 148+97) OR nagakiba with bleed affinity (nagakiba bleed 66, dmg 139+69)
why don't we see the other bosses from the main game in the land of shadows? isn't it supposed to be a place for the dead?
>weekend, finally. been a rough week at work, time to play some shadow of the erdtree and pick up some snacks for once.>buy some lightly salted potato chips.>open it up and play>realize that there's very little taste>check in the bag>they're not even saltedthey forgot to salt my lightly salted chips, what the fuck miyazaki
>>483989101pretty much my experience as well
>move radahn to an option boss and fix his one attack that can't be dodged reliably>shrink the DLC so there isn't so much pointlessly empty space and garbage filler items (who gives a fuck about smithing stone 3 or lordsworn bolt etc etc)>messmer final bossJust made the DLC a 10/10
>>483989149Dude you're not doing anything smart, you're just sounding like an extra faggot right now. At least have the spine to not act like a dickless faggot. Like I can literally hear you sucking my dick right now. Have some pride.also haha you didn't play the game and didn't know it was miquella in the cocoon lmao. retard. subhuman. you pathetic animal that lets me mock it.
>>483988087I think it should be over with Elden Ring. They had chance to close the story, instead they chose to expand it more, so it's now convoluted mess, but still bearable. They should just move on to another IP.
>>483989017Because it didn't have a shadow aspect to balance it.Marika suppressed the knowledge of the Tower/Cruclble, which represents the necessary balanced "evolutionary" conflict of Light and Dark, because she doesn't like violence or death.She just wants Golden Light with no shadow.
>>483989308jesus christ this is why men will never win the social game against women

>>483989224Another red crying bitch tears that he got his hole gaped instead of getting his tip in how he wanted.Nobody has any sympathy for you, idiot. Get it through your skull.>nooooo!!!! My victims know how to play and have strong builds!!!! Wtf I didn't sign up for this!But you did. Retard.
>>483989334A good food analogy for how the DLC will be
>>483989224they really ruined invasions in this game, it just isn't worth it anymore unless you're using absolutely maximum levels of bullshit to 1-shot people. and that isn't particularly fun when you're spending most of your time in loading screens. idk why "i just want a good, challenging fight" is such a big ask, yet here we are.
honestly all you need to do for Radahn is nerf the1. move he does with the two into the cross that you can't dodge2. big multi-light pillar explosion he does after lifting his sword out of the ground at the end of a couple of combosThese do so much damage that you get killed from 60% even with respectable holy resist and skibidi/health, which leads to a frustrating fight where you end up dying to excessively hard to avoid strikes and it feels more bullshit than fair.
>>483989469>no you're a shitter you can't complain about the dlci can and willjokes aside it is a good DLC but could be better with a few simple changesthe world bloat especially was really getting on my nerves as time went on
>>483989234>>483989469thanks
>>483989314>so i don't want to waste smithing stones)Listen dude....there are infinite smithing stones. Just go pick up the bell bearings and buy some. You are gimping yourself for no reason.
>>483989308...Oh wow, this anon might be more retarded then that fuck who didn't play the game who thinks Miquella isn't in the cocoon.The ability to say a simple, not well thought out sentence and then seeing which animals freak out and are unable to control themselves is a great way to out people who you never want to touch. For this reason I am also always going to select bear.If you're too fucking stupid to get it then you're just... too fucking stupid. It's not hard. It's not complex. You just can't control yourselves and are mad something outed you as the sick thing you really are.
All you need to do for Radahn is to remove him from the game and start over from scratch on a completely new final boss.
>that one femcel anon that is freaking out about invaders and thinks all men and invaders are literally rapists, responding to every invader post with ragelol, looks like this bitch is gonna be here for awhile. better grab the popcorn. did you enjoy watching biden crash and burn on thursday? did it make you cry? did Trump "invade" the debate? bet you hated that lmao. keep going please.
>>483989518its been two years already bro, elden ring is a yellow god game(except by the fact that the dlc will kill it too)>>483989314keen + bloodflame blade>>483989770based
messmer should've been the final bossmessmer was done dirty
>>483989661really? i thought i wouldn't be able to max out 2 weapons. k then thx>>483989810>keen + bloodflame bladecan you explain please?
>>483989308The best and brightest
Do you think the DLC will make Radahn more or less popular? At least all the shonenfags fucked off from him now that he's a homo shotafag at best and a mindraped meatpuppet homo at worst
Leda's fight if you do quests to make it 3v5 is the best fight in the series.
>that one tranny invader who seethes and has a meltdown everytime he doesnt get someone afk
>>483989921it gives you more bleed
>>483989958less. way, way less
>>483989518Because when invasions are designed to be a balanced asymmetrical experience invaders will learn the rules of the game and become very good at it, but hosts and phantoms generally won't, and the 'balanced' fight becomes imbalanced. You saw this with Spears of the Church. They put so much effort into designing a balanced pvp encounter that was still winnable for the host but the vast majority of Spears just got ganked and cried about it, the vast majority of gank squads got pitted against some mad as hell wank demon and cried about it, and the only people having fun were the small minority of veteran invaders to whom the Spear buffs felt like an overwhelming advantage against the 3v1 odds they were already accustomed to.Even with all the odds stacked against invaders in ER some of us have absurdly high success rates, because the game has no real way to offset the colossal gap in skill and preparation that's possible.
>>483989806Red was crying that pvp happened to him instead of the other way around, and now a red is crying that he was compared to a child predator, which remains an apt description of limgrave invaders.

>>483989101>>483989386inside the shadow keep, in the area that has a lot of boats on fire and shadow militiamen, there's 2 summon signs: one to assist Leda and kill Hornsent, and one to assist Hornsent and kill Leda.if you progress Ansbach's quest you also get the same decision later on, you can help him or help Leda.
>>483989958Less.From's attempt at fan service backfired hard, really hard.
Why does Messmer talk about himself in third person? Is he mentally ill?
BUY AN AD 4CHAN IS NOT YOUR FREE ADVERTISING PLATFORM
>>483989903i avoided finishing the shadow keep because i thought he was going to be the final bossim still satisfied though, easily top 5 ER bosses, messmer was a fucking fantastic fight
>>483989806we have femcels here who play elden rangs? i don't believe it. women wouldn't play a difficult game like this unless they had an audience and were cheered on by thousands of men
My struggle to beat the game continues...
Has anyone been mad enough to go through the DLC twice and dual wield the Sword of Light and the Sword of Darkness, yet?
>>483989958more popular: messmer, mohg (mainly because of sir ansbach)less popular: radahnmiquella will stay the same because of fetishes, malenia will stay the same because she got nothing anyway
>>483989743you just told on yourself btw, misandrist. you're literally a bigot. and i mean that with the literal definition of literally.pic related is really how you think. honestly don't know how you live in the world if you think all men are just waiting to attack you at all times as soon as they get you alone. you're absolutely disgusting and that's all i'm saying anymore on the matter. get a therapist, you are mentally ill.
sooo the smith script weapons on Magic or Sacred infusion is bugged right? gives about double the damage per lvl of skill point than on any other weapon

You really, really can't act that way in real life and come across as a normal person.Not even talking shit here, I'm honestly trying to help you. A lot of women feel unsafe around men. So they pick bear. Them, if a man freaks the fuck out they can avoid that guy. Because who the fuck freaks out on someone because they don't feel safe.This isn't hard lmao.anyways the DLC story is shit.

Whats your favorite thing about souls games? For me it's the buildcrafting.
>>483990152Radahn really just isn't interesting character. He was zombie since first time we met him in base game. It's hard to celebrate a husk. He is literally soulless from the start.
>>483990613yeah he's a shitter not that i care though, other than people sucking him off as the greatest elden ring player of all time

>>483990280umm how do you change their infusions?
>>483991151OK I believe you
>>483990957How many women get killed by bears each year?How many women get raped or killed by men each year?
>>483991204They lament
My favorite part about souls games is just killing everything
>>483990957That's not what that is about at all. It's about unity and being able to see what kind of face a person is going to show over a hypothetical. I'm as dirty as you are but this is not hard.Also the DLC story is sooooo bad.
>>483988810Did you deny him his revenge by not summoning him for Messmer?
>>483991204they laugh blissfully.
>>483976693Yeah no magic is gimped >Big boss? cast corkscrew while running in circles >Little boss? Spam moonblade >everything else? cast some version of pebble. Or stars if you're feeling extra spicy
>>483991521Yeah, didn't summon him for Messmer, couldn't find him afterwards, and he didn't invade me before Bug Mommy.
>>483991462This. Its a revealing question because shitty men get offended about women feeling unsafe around encountering a atrange man in the woods. A bear is just an animal.
>>483991204They weep copiously.
>>483990736Buildcrafting is the big oneThen fashionShowing off both in invasions and coopThen that first playthrough exploration
>>483990957do you have autism?>Woman says she'd rather stay with a bearPerson 1 spergs out because they feel personally attacked that they think a woman would be afraid of them if alone in the woods, posting about how she's going to get mauled and killed. Reveals that they're the type of guy to sperg our when a woman doesn't adore them, is incapable of basic empathy, and is vindictive over the question.Person 2 goes "Fair enough, strangers could be scary" has enough social acumen to understand why women would be afraid of a stranger in the woods. Therefore for most women, they can easily discount any interactions with Type 1 males and instead go with type 2 males. Type 2 males range from alphas who think women are weak and need protecting or leftist allies who think there's massive issues with rape.It's a question that filters out social spergs.
>>483990063Why does the title of the video say they all suck, but he complimented half of them, and said some outright replaces old ones?
Was it Marika who made the Albinuarics to repopulate her race?The Nox(Also Numen) experimented with that.
I wanna respec into Quality cause I wanna try the Dragon Hunter GK. What are some other fun Quality options? I know Ghiza's Wheel and the Fallingstar Jaw are both quality.
I pick bear because it pisses off retards who ask questions just so they can cause a fight, and if an actual justification is there it's because it's about agency.Bears work on animal rules, you have agency and can choose to do whatever. With the man you sont have that, you just pass over 10p% of that agency to the good will of him. It's like asking you "Would you rather come across a bear in thw woods or be tied up in someone's basement?"Like are a vast majority of the population harmless and would just untie you and go "Wtf was that?" Sure. But like it's about having to just RELY on that.But it's mostly just to piss people off

The fact that your mind goes there does say a lot though. This isn't political though. This is an honest attempt to help you. Don't be that thing. That's not what men are.Also, holy shit, Miquella being in the cocoon yet somehow having a second body to divest himself of in the Lands of Shadows is the biggest plot hole in a game I've seen for a long LONG time.
Was I the only one who assumed Miquella was evil from the get go? The first thing I found out about him was that he was using mind magic on people to control them or some shit. That kinda stuff is an immediate red flag in any fucking scenario.Another theory of mine is that the reason Mohg kidnapped him was because he used his mind magic on Mohg but it worked too well and made him obsessed with Miquella.

>>483991819Aow?
I feel the radahn nerf coming.Remember to beat him before it is too late.Also what did miyazaki mean by making two gays the last boss?
>>483992606Yea but we already knew about St. Trina in the base game so even in the base game hasn't he already removed his love?
>>483992481I don't really care if he was evil or not. I've always adhered to the principle that the demigods have failed in the shattering and it's up to the tarnished to set this crooked land right. I've always played Elden Ring with this philosophy>Tarnished, show no mercy. >Have their heads. >Take all they have left.
>>483992606>>483992481He was good until he discarded his goodness and all aspects of his being to become a God. There is a NPC who points this out. Dude lost himself.
>>483991952Most women don't think the men they know are going to randomly rape them. They do know if we wanted to there would be very little they could do. More importantly, this is a filter. A net that you're getting trapped in. anger is poison, knock that off.Also? I think the Skibi tree was meant to be Death Blight. I have a hard time accepting otherwise. It HAD to be. That would be such a huge fucking change to make though.

>>483991271nta but this argument is silly. the vast majority of men are not rapists or murderers. you might as well argue you'd rather be locked in a room with a hippo than a mosquito because mosquitoes kill a million people a year and hippos only kill 500.

>>483992783It's kind of funny that you still have people asking why (You)'re killing demigods when this is one of the first actual orders you get when you start the game. (You)r job is to kill all who stand in the way of you becoming Elden Lord.
why did miquella keep trying to get dudes to destroy his bussy?what is the deep lore on him thirsting for demigod cock?is the future of elden ring LGBQT+ friendly and will I be able to identify as whichever gender I want in character creation?
>>483992606St trina was Miquella's way of divesting himself of kindness and love.Just like his mother Marika, divested herself of loyalty to the golden order by creating Radagon.These people are splitting off aspects of their personality that will hinder their ambitions.
>>483987292>Rugaleanever found this dumb ass bear, found the other one though.
>>483992963Thanks anon, so 80 faith/45-50 arcane wouldnt be dumb? I'm planning on Cipher Patra for fire resistant stuff.
>>483992995>why did miquella keep trying to get dudes to destroy his bussy?He's boy Marika, what did you expect
>>483992995>is the future of elden ring LGBQT+ friendly and will I be able to identify as whichever gender I want in character creation?Only if you choose Goldmask
I am fucking sick of knights with infinite stamina, infinite poise and 89 hit combos that cannot be interrupted even if you hit them with a fucking nuclear bomb.
>>483990723Yes, but one turns into another, I'm talking about having both at once.
>>483978640That is pretty much all he did on Elden Ring.Describe all the characters and politics pre-shatering.
>>483992185lol
>>483992870Just proving how effective the net is man. Shit like this makes me feel bad because it makes me look bad by proxy. I swear we're not all this stupid. I mean, I'm stupid, but in other less idiotic ways. I mean you all know that but fuck. Just fuck. fucking fuck.I need a weed gf or femboy to play games with. And to talk with about how fucking dumb this story is omg how is it so baaaaad.

>>483992081yea but u get to him through his evil castle
>>483993202equip a colossal sword and laugh at them
I still think Gideon Ofnir could've been a cool mage boss
>>483993202im fucking sick of you shitters whining instead of gitting gudbut you're stuck with it like im stuck with you
>>483992481yeah the bewitching branch says something about him in a sinister way. I think Mohg was unplanned. Malenia left to fight Radahn, Miquella is in the cocoon and Mohg yoinks him, cocoon and all. The picture in the cinematic is just for visual clarity. Then when Miquella needs a demigod body he can charm, Mohg's corpse is right on the doorstep.
>>483990897 Me too.
>>483979220And even with all those new faith weapons, the Blasphemous Blade remains the superior workhorse.
>>483991045which pants and hands?good luck
>>483991621>Person 2 goes "Fair enough, strangers could be scary" has enough social acumen to understand why women would be afraid of a stranger in the woods.JFC you're unhinged. My only hope is that you're an extreme minority of the population.
>>483991672i use milay and fire knight great sword
>>483992209the main question is why you (or femcels in general) think that the average man will assault you the moment they get you alone? or why you think bears aren't dangerous wild animals that can smell you from miles away?it's like asking if you think a woman would rather have sex with a man or a dog, and men all agreed "dog". you'd probably be pretty offended, because you believe it's not true, but they all just say "nope you're a dogfucker. woof woof, bitch."
>>483993838Scaled. Thanks.
>>483994228huh, i'm a guyi just think finding someone in the woods to be scary or it may be my social phobia talking
>>483994228Because that's how they areAbout 80% would at some point given the opportunityThe other 19.9% would if they knew they could 100% get away with it.I only think that around 0.1% of them would never do it no matter what
Who the hell is this guy
>>483983493Nta but hang yourself you condescending faggot.Thereare literally two Miquella's Crosses in the Shadow Realm that explicitly say "I abandon here my arm sinistral" and "I abandon here my arm dextral". How the fuck is Miquella abandoning any part of his body if it's in the cocoon?You see A right arm (dextral) hanging out of the cocoon. It's still there when you return there after finishing the DLC. How the fuck could it be Miquella's real body? And that's not even mentioning the very fucking obvious fact that uh, the cocoon arm is a gigantic, desiccated corpse. For a Demigod literally cursed to never grow out of childhood.Did you forget that Demigods can literally create fucking physical mirror images of themselves that exist in a different place at the same time, like Morgott and Margit?Literally cannot believe that you would insist that *you* played the game and everyone else didn't. Fucking nigger.
>>483994228It's a way to filter out people like you. Along with helping find some unity with other people. Also women are rightfully worried about overly emotional men that will flip a switch the moment they are faced with something that challenges them. It's also an education thing - you have to be REALLY stupid to not understand this. Women don't really want a stupid man. I. Do I actually say it's not about the bear? Do I actually have to say that? No one can be so stupid that they need me to actually say that...
>>483988443Don't hug me Miquella! Don't touch me! I don't want turn gay! I don't care you're not using your charm ability don't touch me with your soft skin. Don't make this fight akward Miquella.>>483991097Based>>483992995Miquella is an eternal horny boy, I think that is all you need to know.
>try to help people with Gaius due to how utterly cancerous he is>dying every second attempt because a picosecond of lag spike means instant death
>>483995720You are appreciated
>>483995151He is one of the Bloody Fingers, you know, those faggots who serve under Mohg. Actually he is the first Bloody Finger who went after you, you get his knives afterward
>>483995720i will never understand you people. all of his attacks are retardedly telegraphed and he hardly mixes anything up.
>>483996638Why does he help me fight Leda? Just because Mohgfags hate Mickey?
>>483986728Bayles stance gets broken very fast if you attack his injured leg.
>>483987712>>483988773>why did the bear thing offend so many men>a way to insult them and shit test themPeople don't like being insulted and shit tested, retard.
>>483995241>>483995097thanks for proving my point that you hate men and think they're all rapists. truly disturbing, i can only hope you're an extreme minority because no good man would ever want to be around you if they get the impression that you're constantly terrified of them. absolutely zero empathy for men, literally 99.9% of men you say, how do you even live in the world?just gonna assume this is a troll and move on to the next thread. but holy fucking shit... if i genuinely thought 99.9% of women would murder me if given the opportunity i'd never leave the house, idk how you do it if you're that deranged. if you really truly honestly believe that. wow.
>>483982864>supposed toaccording to literally who?
>>483983407What would be the difference she is blind?
